    That is mind bogglingly fast! How does that car not launch at those speeds? It looks like it would feel like driving inside a blender.

    Honestly at that speed, I would rather have wings on the thing and just buzz the ground. What would be really cool would be to pull back on the stick at that speed and go straight up. Weeeee.

    Would hate to hit a unnoticed "dippy doo" in the track at that speed.
