Un-freaking-believable.That thing hits 200mph before most cars have even hit 100mph. Crazy.

It looks like the car isn't even trying it has so much damn power.![]()

I know the person who owns the Ford GT forum, and he said that the guy claims that car will top out at 300. Maybe he wasn't full of BS![]()

I thought it was going to be like some of those Hennesey modded car videos that go after the 250 mark where things are all bouncy and violent.
For this vid, I clicked back to look at the speedo again. I thought he was in top gear and things were going to get nuts as the car scratched its way to 250, but the speed seemed to be achieved w/out breaking a sweat.

It seemed like 80 in most cars.

I like how it doesnt really wind out through the gears, it just kinda farts to the rev limiter.

I'll bet we see this record broken next weekend at Texas Mile if the wather holds up.

Amazing.. I watched it at first and thought..man he is really taking it easy, lazy on the throttle.. missed a shift.. then it was all over and I was like that's it?I watched it again and kept my eye on the mph...whoa. The car didn't settle in and pull until 150mph.. effortlessly. If that was a world record, it seems the car can easily top that!

he would've been 5mph quicker if he didn't drive like a tard.

He set a WORLD RECORD...who cares how he looked while doing it![]()

You blow a tire at speed, doesn't matter much if one or two hands are on the wheel I guess.

FAST CAR IS FAST. I like how it seems like it doesn't really accelerate until it gets to 6K RPM, right before redline. It just kind of hrrrump, hrrump, hrrump, 250MPH! Lolz!

I'm surprised it even hooked up at 150.

Well he did miss a shift. They think it can top 260mph next time they run it. I've always loved the Ford GT but this is serious.This car, if it had the gearing could do 300mph without a doubt.
I wonder if they are taking it to the Texas mile?
#26
somebody beat the poopra's finally. Thank god.ive always loved me some GT.

It seems his biggest problem was getting traction up to just before 200mph.

I'd take the Ford GT over ANY Porsche, Ferrari, Lambo, or Zonda (f money wasn't involved).

Why?

Because it's a way more badass/rare car, and a very streetable 1500whp is only 2 turbos away.

the comments below the video are making my head hurt. Actually, all youtube video comments suck.Sick run though.
