Under 7 seconds to do 20.8km, that must be many times the speed of sound! Simply amazing when you realize how many corners were involved

Seriously tho, was that on road car tyres???

Nope. Thats on slicks.

anybody run a formula 1 car?

Yeah must have been on slicks...
But then i thought production cars are supposed to use the tyres they come with..?
I know there was big emphasis on this regarding the R35 GTR.


X-Rad- I think the road would be too bumpy for an F1 car...not sure if its been done though.

Yes, but it's not a street legal production car. It's a rich man toy like the FXX a few years back. Think Le Mans car and you will be closer to the truth.

Thanks for the link Garth. Pants wetting drive.

Now get your turbo keypad going and correct your 7 second typo will ya?

Wicked Duk, thanks for that.

MD your very welcome cheers brutha.

Next in car vid will be of me....hehe. But then what i have in store, i will have to put an alias...haha. Oh my...

Mats. you are always soooo positive...

Man that is fastlll

BUT lap time of 7:29?? they say it could have been faster if 'restrictions??" were removed....???

Hmm, what did I do this time?

It's a racecar, trust me.

Mats, you are clearly wrong. Of course that's a road car, it has 2 vents and 2 seats. Road car!

Other things that give it away are the road car under trays, the road car full roll cage and the road car slick tyres.

See, road car...............

and those giant carbon fiber 'donuts'.....

Those pics are just pure car porn...noice.
