SSC Aero is now the world's faster production car, according to the blurb it can do around 257MPH so it seems to go a little faster in PGR4.

Edit: Apparently...

Wind-tunnel testing indicates that the Ultimate Aero could possibly reach a top speed of 437 km/h (273 mph) given appropriate transmission gear ratios. The base Aero, however, should only reach around 386 km/h (240 mph).

thought that guy was using a glitch or something (like WhiteRoser's infamous "GetBurnoutRevengeTakedowns.exe""

). I'll have to try that car when i next play.

To be fair as he said he's not really cheating just exploiting a glitch

People who exploit glitches to win, are cheating.

its only a game, exploiting glitches has been going on since the dawn of gaming, i wouldn't call it cheating though because sometimes it makes it fun

I think it depends what type of game you are playing. I know for a fact there are a host of "glitches" in DOA4 that you need to know in order to remain competitive online. For anyone who has played quake 3, I'm sure at some point they have strafe jumped - this was a glitch in the game code. However, as for PGR4 its just wrong imo.

lol at the guy's response in the vid too

Rocket jumping, conc jumping and bunnyhopping were all glitches when they were discovered. In some cases they have been deliberately recreated (TF2 and fortress forever) and in the case of bunnyhopping, if it's an accepted tactic as it was in TFC it can be very fun, challenging and add to the gameplay.

The glitch displayed in the video however requires no skill, doesn't look much fun and takes away a large amount from the gameplay. I wonder how the devs missed such a huge glitch?
