That thing is ROLLING.

I imagine it has a pretty sophisticated BRAKING system too! Some of the stats and tid bits he was talking during the ride were cool, tires last 15 minutes at that speed, ha!

Tires last 15 minutes fuel was 12 I think, that is just insane. That was the coolest thing since sliced bread!

I don't know if they have deers in Germany but the whole time I watched that video I thought it would be awesome if a deer ran across the road while he was doing 253mph

That would be a mess of the century right there.
