Usain Bolt: the human GT-R

Seeing as Usain Bolt is a Nissan GT-R driver, do his competitors say that his running is like a video game and his legs do it all for him?

I think he may be testing the Kers prototype for the R36, he pressed the button in the last 20m

What a natural talent.

Definitely aftermarket turbos as they took time to spool.

Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car and oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car. Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall and torque is how far you take the wall with you.

I reckon his predecessors will try to deny his greatness by saying he is not 'iconic' and has 'no pedigree.'

The cynic in me is saying he is probably already on several stages of "juice", as most sprinting athletes I imagine are.

lol CC no such thing as turbo lag as its non linear throttle response due to a steepening power curve.
in other words seems slow when not on boost but really isnt compared to normall aspirated cars with similar cc engine
its just that fu...ing quick when it does spool up.

Stopping from 33mph takes some time
