The Regera is rear wheel drive only, so 0-62mph takes a relatively tardy 2.7 seconds. "We can't go any faster than that because of traction," Christian says. 0-186mph takes 12 seconds flat, while 0-250mph takes under 20 seconds. It'll go from 93mph to 155mph in just 3.2 seconds, and top out at 255mph. Let those numbers swirl around your head for a moment.

Don't matter... if you crash it, you won't feel a thing - no corpse does, if I remember correctly

0 to 100 MPH in .8 seconds - the first 60 feet.
0 to 200 MPH in 2.2 seconds the first 350 feet.
These are the specs from race cars.

Didn't they just race a similar version against the Bugatti Veyron and beat it in top speed?

The only place you can go that fast is on a long airport runway....no way you can go that fast on the street or a track....

Burning nitro methane ( top fuel) needs much less oxigen to burn (explode ) so you can use much more of it with supercharged cylinder filling , 4, 5 sec 330 mph on a 1/4 mile ,.....10000 HP

Top fuel dragsters consume more fuel per second than a 747.
Fuel lines look like fire hoses [the upcoming audiophile interconnects].
