I saw a cheetah make a kill about 200 yards away from me in Kenya. It went from lying down to full sprint before I even saw it stand up! One of the coolest things I have ever witnessed.

That had to hurt plowing into that termite mound at the end. Probably not as much as it ended up hurting the hare, though.

But even with it's speed and handling characteristics only half of the chases, which last from 20 to 60 seconds, are successful.

Wow.  Go to the 2:45 mark and watch how freakin' fast the cheetah accelerates to gain on the rabbit after making the turn.  Unbelievably fast.

not faster than Red Victor  0-60 in .9 seconds.  Worlds fastest street legal car.

Red Victor 3

In mid-2011 performance specs for the still in production RedVictor3 were released by VXR. It uses an 8.8L Twin Turbo engine producing 3000 hp at the rear-wheel. Red Victor Racing predicts 1/4 mile times around 6.5 seconds at 240 mph, and 0-153 mph in 4.8 seconds. Red Victor 3 will still be street legal, and use pump-gas on the street.[1] Thus it will be quicker than Larry Larson's '66 Nova, which recently trumped Red Victor 1 as the fastest street legal vehicle. It now is the worlds quickest and fastest street legal car in the 1/4 mile as of June 2012, with a 6.59 @ 220 mph elapsed time.

It's a lot faster than the hare, but the hare is a bit more nimble at less than 10% of the weight of the cheetah. Watch the cheetah gain on it when they are both running the same direction.

True. However the cheetah does it with just a couple horsepower, the Red Victor 3 needs 3000 HP.
