Enjoy.

I don't have any sound here at school, but I'll watch it when I get home...seems pretty cool though.

Reminds me of the Top Gear episode where they raced an Aston Martin DB9 and a train from London to Paris...

theres no way a car is faster than a plane. planes dont have to deal with traffic or speed limits.

Top Gear did the same thing in europe. The car and the other guy started in the same place. The car takes off and the guys have to catch a bus to the airport and all that crap and they deal with traffic, but once on the plane, they start catching up to the car; plane lands car is behind but then the plane guys have to deal with getting a bus and ****. All comes down to a few hundred feet. Guys get out of the bus and have to run up a hill with their stuff, car zoomes by and makes it to the hotel. Car wins; beats plane.

not bad

yea no sound right now so I couldn hear but I think I got the gist of the vid. They should have made the plane fly lower to the ground, that's just what I I think.
