ya the guy was retarded...in reality the m6 woulda lost by a landslide...when the helicopter first goes by you can see its jacked all forward accelerating hard and then towards the end its planed out flat and then lastly its actually tilted up a little slowing it down drastically. car looks hot, but the guy ruins the vid. WOW he can drive in a straight line lol. they need a new host.

Helicopters don't accelerate very quickly, and they don't fly very fast straight and level either.
It depends on the aircraft, but the most common civilian turbine helicopters (Jetranger or A-Star) are only good for about 120 kts. If it was a Robinson or Engstrom, only about 90 kts.
The forward tilt of the helicopter (rotor disc) is present during both acceleration and high speed cruise. The pilot sets the attitude (forward/rearward tilt) of the aircraft for the desired airspeed, and the attitude of the helicopter remains constant up to and after that speed is reached.
