As pointless as any specialised topspeed machine that is compromised on the road imo..............

I kinda agree its pointless but lots of people just build cars/bikes to chase the numbers and lose sight of what a nice fast road machine is like.

A car I'd have loved to own

What I was trying to say is that LOTS of folk build things with the biggest topspeed they can manage in mind and they're not all pointless.
