- X5 LeMans version
- 12-cylinder engine with more than 700 HP
- Has reached speeds on the straightaway of more than 300 KPH (after which time the car becomes very unstable)
- Has run the "ring" in some 8 minutes... he could probably run it faster, but the weight of the vehicle demands that he start braking (when approaching turns) a lot sooner than he would were he driving a "regular" car

Thanks for sharing. Nice video.
