Anyone ever seen this video? Really is a spectacular machine, and such a rush, to even watch it.

I noticed it too.

This car was never built with having to handle speeds over 200MPH in mind. There's no telling what will rattle or begin to come apart at those speeds.

He was inside that huge and thick suit, you can't really see his face or how much he was probably shaking. Losing control of a car at 244MPH is enough to make even the most experienced driver panic, although he was able to not let it get the best of him and act accordingly.

That bump at 0:57 screwed him up. they should fix that crap before they have cars running over 200mph there

So how should I title it? Camaro goes 244MPH, then slows down, then drifts?

Or I could just copy the exact same title from the youtube video, very original.

Nice and plenty of power in that thing.
Was his clutch smoking towards then end? Mines doing that over 120mph now. Need to get a new one.
Must be an awesome feeling to do over 200mph.
Nice video, thanks for sharing.

Actually what caused the slide was when he hit the chutes one of them ripped so it threw him the other way. Now there is bonneville style chutes on it, they deploy softer for that reason.

the rear gear was a 2.55 this past weekend at the mile. the car went 246mph.

highway gears much... god damn! that is a scary ass car imagine if he could get into 5th gear. shit could go 300 prob but im sure its about to take off and get airborn.
