Default Camaro goes 244 MPH and drifts

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.

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.

What is the gearing in the car? 4 gears to hit 244?
