Top Gear Segment on a Hennessey Raptor--The Raptor Races a HALO jumper in the desert
really awesome video on top gear america where the raptor races a HALO jumper in the desert. I like the british top gear the best but this was well done. i REALLY want a raptor now.
enjoy

Makes for good TV but in reality the Raptor (or any land driven vehicle) would have no chance against a HALO jumper. The Terminal Velocity of a free falling human is about 125 mph and if they tuck into the bullet position, they can reach speeds up to 210 mph, so in reality the race would be over very quickly. Still cool video to watch.
