OMFG

" The claimed 987bhp was measured, as are all VW power outputs, at an ambient outside temperature of over 40° C, where the air is thin, starving the turbos of the oxygen they need to develop full boost. At a more normal temperature, say 20° C, its output is nearer 1035bhp..."

"What I do know is that its top speed of 407km/h (253mph) is electronically limited because of the tyres. Nobody really knows how fast it will go completely unrestricted..."

Not too disimilar to the LCR situation!!! Restricted to 150 because of the PZero Rosso's when we all know it will do at least 165+

Limited to 253mph, they should have just done a nice round 250mph
