I remember getting passed by a 458 on the Autobahn between Stuttgart and Munich while we were doing 155mph, I'd assume he was doing vMax, or close to 200mph. That differential was pretty scary, he was closing on people before they knew he was there and having to brake heavily fairly often.
The speed differentials this thing would create are just stupid and unusable. This is purely for bragging rights, no owner will ever see those speeds. Should have just geared it for one mile an hour faster than the Bugatti and shown how much quicker it was.
