This video makes me dizzy just looking at it. Iv'e never seen anything so fast (or stupid). Watch the revs increasing while the speedo no longer moves. Talk about a death wish. Wouldn't fancy trying to cross this road.
Yeah but do you really think it's genuine? Hard to say for sure but at that speed I'd have thought the broken centreline would nearly be a blur? Must check it out on www.snopes.com
But yeah, I'd say your man's speedometer is a little generous — I guess the manufacturers do this on purpose, the better to entice the boy racers on their test drives...
Ex World Rally Champion Ari Vatanen on the Manx Rally 1983 in a Manta 400. Watch the car control ( & luck ) just before the bridge, absolutely blessed. What a pilot though
