    Crazy to think: What's the point of speeds like that?

    an m5 is limited to 155, doesn't mean it won't go faster. seems kinda dumb Guinness would take away the record.

    Was there any time in recent memory when Guinness was relevant to your life?

    You don't think Guinness is important? This record seems important:

    So they take away the Veyron's top-speed record, due to a limiter that Bugatti will remove if you're taking the car to a closed course, but the Hennessey Exige is a "production car".... huh.
