You mean 250.1mph after all the .1 makes all the difference!!

[UH-Matt]

.1 would have definitely made the difference if it was a 249.9 run

That's bloody impressive, looks like a bit of a handful!

What's the thing hanging off the back?

It's a parachute for stooping quicker at your tasiotional drag strip.

A Ford GT has just broken the standing mile record in Florida - 266.9 MPH into a strong headwind!

Think about it - 266.9 mph in a STANDING MILE!

even more astounding when you consider he was having major gearbox issues and running into a strong headwind - they are pushing for 275mph at Texas mile!

Cant help thinking he'd get more speed if he put the pies down!

Pretty impressive 360 spin under braking at the end of the 250 mph run too..
