I used "VLC MEDIA PLAYER" and it worked fine with me....
Its not the best of quality and I dont think it has sound!!!
But the two cars were travelling at an insanely high rate of speed!!!!

Just use NOKIA 3GP PLAYER. It will play the video with sound. Yeah, I think SLR gave up at the end and they went close to 210mph (look at SLR's tacho...)..
The best drag video I've seen so far.

I agree Scoop, something was strange. The SLR was walking the SL65 real good in the begginging of the race as it should to unless the SL65 is modded "heavily". To me it sound like the SLR is letting up and letting the SL65 pass. An umlimited SL65 does manage the same topspeed as the SLR, but its not way a stock SL65 is capable of outrunning a SLR in high speed like it showed oon this video.
So either the SLR driver let up or the SL65 is modded to hell and back, but if it was that much modded it should have destroyed the SLR in low speed as well.

I don't think the SLR driver gave up b/c his friend was yelling, he's coming, he's coming, so I'd figure he was still trying to race at that point. Just my 2 cents.
Was this taken with a video/camera phone maybe

it seemed to me that the SLR just held at top speed, as if a limiter kicked in or something.

I think I heard the driver of SLR saying he was going 307km/h or 191mph when got passed.
That is not SLR's top speed. Here is something I read a while ago.......
"SLR accelerates so rapidly � 0-100 km/h in 3.8 seconds, 0-200 km/h in 10.6 seconds, 0-300 km/h in 28.8 seconds � it changes your very conception of time, speed and distance. Keep the throttle open and the speedometer needle closes in on its 334 km/h top speed with such stunning rapidity that what you thought had been a long open stretch of road suddenly becomes a frighteningly foreshortened braking zone."
or
"We have just nudged an indicated 300km/h - that's 186mph - on the Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren's luminous speedometer. Should I keep my right foot planted? It's tempting, because the acceleration shows no sign of abating; the talk is that someone else has seen 340km/h today, which is 211mph. And surely the speedo of a car with such a distinguished engineering pedigree must be reasonably accurate..."
Are you saying that SL65 passed SLR doing its 207mph top speed?
Chances of SL65 moded or not passing SLR doing 207mph as if it were standing is zero.
Obviously SLR gave up after jumping way ahead of sl65. The outcome was clear and slr finished racing when sl pulled up.
