Gran Turismo 5 Red Bull X1

My first stand-alone card, It is based on the Ultra-Fast Red Bull X1 from Gran Turismo 5. I am trying to replicate its sense of speed through its card effect, where it "outruns" your opponent. I have also added some backstory for those who don't know about it. Comments, positive or negative, are appreciated.

History/Backstory

The Red Bull X1 is a prototype race car designed by the Gran Turismo 5 development team with Red Bull Motorsports. The car is designed with no restriction in mind, with the goal of becoming the fastest race car ever built.

The car uses a turbo fan to suck air from underneath the car, allowing it to travel through corners without greatly slowing down. This has had great effect on handling, as the car can take most turns at over twice the speed of most race cars. The car has also obtained a top speed of over 300 miles per hour in Gran Turismo 5, 50 mph faster than the Bugatti Veyron. With this performance, the car immediately set lap records on every virtual course it drove on, and its times already are unmatchable by any other car.

The car will probably never be built in real life, as the g-forces produced by it when turning would black out, if not kill, the person driving it. Still, the car remains one of the fastest cars ever to exist in the gaming world and has achieved an almost mythical status among gamers.
