That is seriously fast...

I don't know if I misunderstood the article, but this car is now the "fastest car in the world", according to the Guinness Book of World Records, displacing the McLaren F1? Why is that, this isn't a production car, and even before the F1 was a few street legal modified cars had gone quite a bit faster than 240mph...

Link didn't work for me, but I'm assuming the 9ff that was tested in Nardo earlier this year, maybe? Sick car, definitely.
