he was stating the speed in kph, 250kph converts to about 155mph. so pretty fast for a race track, but no where near the speed you were thinking.

Sounds awesome as ever. Truly cannot understand and feel sorry for the import fan boys who like the flatulent 4 cylinder noise over a thundering V8. Wonder if Jeremy Clarkson would spring for one of these?

Jeremy Clarkson did spring for one. He owned a Ford GT but had lots of trouble with the security system that they somehow put in over there and ended up selling it later on.
