Found these images while searching through internet. Yes it is MPH not KMH. Amazing what these beasts are capable of.
I wonder what the traffic engineers have ahead that they felt the need to suggest you slow down?
shit, that's like 330km/h!

My Ride: See my signature
Call me crazy but traveling 200 mph on a public highway is insane. That's a real danger to others. I think that speeds that fast have to be reserved for the racetrack. I've certainly gone triple digits but have never and would never approach a speed like that on a public road.
Nonetheless, it is amazing that the Beast can reach that speed. I did not think that a car with 500 bhp could go that fast. I would think that that speed would take closer to 650-700 bhp.

Coincidentally I think it was the video that was also posted by Stormster on this thread: http://forums.e60.net/index.php?showtopic=74224&st=0

Edit: and the second pic reads "SLOW" on the road to each his own understanding of SLOW as he swings by at the speed of over 200!
