Default When a SMART car meets a Busa engine

This may be old news, but fun to watch and would probably be fun to drive. You can Youtube another video where a SMART car outruns a Ferrari..but I think that is because the Ferrari driver sucked..but still the SMART car did a 1/4 mile in about 13 secs.

I've heard this is actually a GSXR 1000 engine, but can't be sure.
