I just hope this douche doesn't take anyone with him when Darwin catches up.

And on top of that, it's an automatic! What a puss.

On-topic, I once read an article about how fast cars are built like upside-down airplane wings. For the same reason a wing gains enough lift to elevate an airplane at 200 mph, a Lamborghini doesn't take off at 200 mph :P

He was using paddle shifting. Thats a manual.

Fair enough.

Still clutchless. As much as I'm a fan of the row-your-own, the clutchless paddles shift faster than any human ever could.

Paddle shifting is great, it not only changes gears, but also raises and lowers the car during that short interval between gears. Truly amazing.
