250 MPH - McLaren F1 (video) - GoFuckYourself.com

RedShoe · 11-15-2002, 01:55 PM

I just had to share this link.

If you like the McLaren F1 as much as I do, this is pretty cool.

A Brit, takes the McLaren F1 up to 391 KMH with a camera mounted to the car. Pretty bad ass. It's funny to hear him say, "391... that's pretty fast isn't it?"

"Andy Wallace takes the McLaren F1 to 240 mph,
with full in-car commentary!"

You forgot to add the decimal point. I think you mean, 25.3 MPH.

Rodent · 11-15-2002, 03:29 PM

Ill take one please.

Ludedude · 11-15-2002, 04:08 PM

Please, could they make those videos any fucking smaller? I'm looking at 160x120 vids on a 1280x1024 monitor LOL.

If you want to see high-speed videos in larger sizes then check out www.racingflix.com (Once they get more bandwidth)

marty · 11-15-2002, 04:30 PM

I want one.

Always have, always will.

High Quality · 11-15-2002, 04:36 PM

Its a known fact that Mclarin fucks with their speedometers. I've seen tests where a speedometer read 240mph but they were really going 216. No doub the dude in the video was flying, but not that fast man.

That's the biggest load of SHITE I've ever heard. Do you really think a 675 HP, 1 million $ car needs such a lame tweak?

The Mclaren will do an honest 240, everybody knows that.

On a side note I finally saw one in real life not too long ago. Fucking tiny car, but hella tight looking, even ten years on.

Umm... The video didn't load for me I tried Opera and MSIE (Windows XP)...

quiet · 11-15-2002, 06:17 PM

Save Target As... It's pretty cool to hear it accelerate from 215 - 391

eru · 11-15-2002, 07:57 PM

Fuck the the acceleration, did you see how fucking fast the scenery was moving by? It was like the dude was driving an airplane right before it takes off.
