I didn't think I'd ever see a car run away from a Veyron like what that car just did. I know you cannot compare modded cars to stock cars, but this guy should be proud of what he got this car to do. It wasn't even a cheat where he just got it to run the 1/4 faster. His GT-R was just straight up faster.

The Veyron was probably stock. It's not only fast, it's quiet. Not gonna sound like it's trying very hard.

Looks legit to me, but still think the Veyron would catch the GT-R eventually. Over 200mph is when the Veyron really pulls.

I would love to have that GT-R though.

huh? The key in a slot near the driver's seat initiates a series of safety checks, lowers the chassis, stablizes the car's diffuser flaps (in the closed position) and Minimizes the angle of incidence of the rear aerofoil to reduce wind resistance (taken from Jalopnik)

That allows it to make the 253mph... but its always got its fully power on tap.

i would think the GTR weighs a thousand pounds less as a major advantage. i have never liked Nissan (only when it was Datsun) but it is a hefty piece of engineering for much less.
