      Damn, there goes my pride in my reading comprehension skills. Still pretty dang close when all you have to do is change ‘no commercially available car’ to ‘no reasonably available car’.

      If they were going that fast, they wouldn’t be getting a simple citation that could be resolved in traffic court, that’s straight to jail levels of recklessness…

        that’s faster than most helicopters, if they’ve got a long enough straight, they’re getting away lol

          If they’ve got the gas for it.

          A Bugatti Chiron can do 440km/h. If the 100 litre tank was filled at the beginning, then the car will travel for 9 minutes at top speed before running out of gas.
