The V is for real, it is very quick for a big car. This was from 40 to 150. At 150 I start coming up on him fast. I think for sure if we were to go from 70 to 180+ he would not have a chance. Either way the V is fast.

This was filmed in Mexico way south of the boarder!!!

Sorry for the start of the Vid, my wife is still learning how to shoot;)
