poprivitWell, it's hell for fast!!!
I live in Las Vegas. There's more than a few V. rapid cars here being driven by not-so-rapid people; but I got to see something pretty slick this AM. I was on my BMW R1200RT bike in the fast lane of Hwy 215 when a Bentley Continental Speed pulled on an on-ramp with the throttle pushed up into the radiator. Lord love a duck but that car made some impressive sounds. I was creeping along at 75-80 and he blew by me like I was painted on the asphalt! He got small real fast!
I know that thing is powered by a W-16 with a whole gaggle of turbos, but I wasn't real prepared to have him Hoover by me so damn fast.
Wish I was either a good car thief, or rich!.

Idaho SharpshooterSupposedly, the Super Speed is good for 205 mph on a flat straight...
iirc, they are a 12-cylinder. The one EVO tested ran 204.5 on a radar gun.

Peter"Only opinions."
Not sure I understand this comment. If a car's speed is clocked using a radar gun, then that is "only opinion"?

RockdocThey are very nice to drive when you put your foot down. The acceleration is amazing.
They will go past everything except a gas station
