Default LMR laying down some stripes at 200 mph, video

I like the side skirts and front bumper spoiler BTW. The car is looking and sounding awesome.

That car is amazing. IIRC It's making half the boost it COULD make for that run.

Talk about a scary ride. I wonder if they have come up with anything to keep the windows down. I remember watching another video of them at the mile and the windows were about to come off, and the car getting sideways way down the track.

I wouldn't have hurt feeling loosing any of these... In fact I would be pleased to see how fast they pull away from me...
