There are many things in this world that could be considered "guy tests". Things a guy would give up something serious for. Like the proverbial left testicular appendage or sex for a week...you get the idea.
From the time I was a kid playing with Hot Wheels slot cars, driving a car really fast has been a craving. Vicariously I have lived through being close enough to a dragster to gag on the nitrous fumes and feel the ground shake when they turn on all 6000 horsepower. It is just awesome!
Anyway, I offer this video up as a guy's bucket list item...a stock street car called the Hennessey Venom GT. Certified as the fastest production car on the world at 275mph and 1250 horsepower. This thing looks badass enough rolling down the street to stop a gang fight in its tracks. And runs like the wind.
They make 3 to 10 of these cars a year.
Ride along as a ordinary driver takes this car up to 200mph. Bit of a wimp he didn't do more but whatever, this is on my bucket list of things to do. Giving up whatever is necessary, of course.
The camera man is bravest of all!!

Chuck!!
Camera man isn't even wearing a helmet.
One of the guys on the British Top Gear took a Bugatti to 250 mph. That would be on my bucket list!
Alex, in another video the guy mentioned the Bugatti and another car Agrea R (I think)...the Venom topped them both. They are trying to find a runway long enough to reach 300mph!!
Hi, Chuck,
It's been a while. Miss you. I stopped by to say hi, and I watched the video. Nearly lost my left testicle too, but then I remembered I never had one. I won't likely be having sex this week now, though that's nothing new. Smiles.
Be well.
