Putting F1 speed into perspective

This was sent to me earlier today by my buddy Lou (Quicker). Pretty jaw-dropping to see a direct comparison...

Wow, hardly even a comparison there.

This is a fun one to watch too:

Saw this on your facebook and the comparison is pretty cool. However, I'm more interested in a comparison between M3 w/slicks and 500hp spec Panoz.

Hmm, slicks, eh? That should make it pretty close. Once we're done with the mods, we should set up a run 'em like we brung 'em, and record it for all to see.

^Of course I'm in

I'm buying a set of track wheels from a friend who recently totaled his e46 M3 (Kyle who you've met at H2R) and mounting either Hoosier R6s or BFG R1s.
