Lost Vegas

: But, was it done with the Warrior? If so, no wonder.

        I don't think so.  NFS record-setting was happening at a fevered
pitch the first few weeks after the game came out.  Personally, I only
got my record down to 8:1x.xx (can't remember exactly, but it was a
record for a while!) when news came of 8:00 being broken.
        I'd think that the current record was set on a Diablo.  Driving
the course properly on the Warrior would result in a much, much lower time.
        So yes, the record is probably true and was probably done in a
"real" car.
