The way it pulls from 180 to 240 is simply amazing. That's a 300mph car with altered gearing.

Still changing up at 260mph! Didn't 140 seem slow after seeing 284mph?

He did look like he was taking it really easy until 180 ish. That must be some sensation being sat in the driver’s seat

Would've been a 300mph car by now if there were tyres up to the job.
