I love the 'numbers' on the Bug. In 15 minutes at is top speed, over 250 mph, the tires will disintegrate. But thats OK, because the gas tank will be empty in 12 minutes! Some other numbers were equally staggering, as you might guess from the fuel consumption. It takes all of the 1000 plus horse power to achieve top speed. The fuel consumption flow required to support that horse power could be likened to a shower head of running water in your bathroom! 12 minute shower, your done!
