    That by itself means nothing to me.

    What made me realize. How fast that is, is that it’s halfway to the top speed of a veyron SS

      Silly @[email protected]

      They forgot that US highway speed units are measured as a ratio of a veyron SS’s top speed. For those that don’t know, that’s 7.37 billion bald eagle wingspans per presidential term.

        lol I meant top speed. But bald eagle/presidential term is definitely superior

      That looks like an M5, it can definitely go at 300kmh, about 75% the speed of a Veyron
