I was just thinking that

Remapped 335D Auto FTW Rated to be better than an M3 as it has a turbo and is a diesel. Better than a Galllardo because it has a boot. Better than a S class Siver Merc because it's blue.

Wow!!
Congrats, bet the Veyron was upset, do you think the magic 500 could be achieved at Brunters the sound barrier aint that far away with a tad more Power. Not heard of a diesel that can rev to 24570rpm in 5th before.
