Already videos of this on youtube showing it can't put the power down. Too much of it and it cooks tires. It's not AWD like the Veyron. To me it's a good looking car, but more kit car than Hypercar. Of course it looks awesome and it's fast as hell, but 1250hp for what? To burn through tires? The guys who have the money to buy this probably don't even use all the power, won't use it, don't know how to use it. Cars like this are awesome but kinda pointless. Anything over 700hp is kinda useless if you think about it, unless you got 5 miles of straight away with no cops.

You will also have bald tires.

Just for the sake of discussion, WHO would have the ability to handle a car like this? Nascar guys?
