I am a huge R35 fan but that does sound like an optimistic claim.

Maybe with 600hp+ and something even better than LC4.

I really want to see a factory-built GT-R that weighs 5% less (37XX lbs) and traps at 125mph stock :)

Two seconds? That's what she said.

who? :confused:

:lol
typical.
Timpo and his "I don't get it."

What is racecar?

Holy fuck is right. I'm expecting them to cut at least 2.5s off that time! Can't wait for the GTR time machine!!

is it spring yet for the new GT-R? because...

Blah blah blah only fucking nerds will own either and your grandmother could beat you 0-60 or in the 1/4 mile with 0 drama


Fucking cars are gay now because they are no longer visceral, look at buddy's face in the Porsche, he looks like he's taking a dump and wondering if he should cook chicken for dinner or have a kale smoothie


Unless you're wheelstanding a car at the drag strip it is no longer an accomplishment to go fast in the same way it is no longer an accomplishment to fuck 4 girls in a week due to Tinder. Electronics have reduced our fun to nothing more than "Launch mode" or "Swipe right"


Fuck this I need to build a car that wheelstands

Look how straight they go, what's the difference between sitting on an airplane and just letting the Captain get you in the air? Fucking ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ


I guess that is why tuners build 800+ rwhp versions that can actually blow off all 4 tires and they take some skill to drive. I remember Counter-Strike pre-source where bitches would use the AWP and jump snipe. It just required much less skill than any other gun in the game and everyone knew it was a bitch move to use it. My arch-nemesis Phodem and his brother Naem eventually stopped being fags and we would have AK duels that would result in draws most of the time, that proved some real fucking skill.


Think of it like this, now whenever you want to race someone whether it's at the track or a back country road, everyone is just relying on their computer or some bullshit autopilot to launch you and nobody has true control of their car anymore. Sure, you steer that bitch, but you're not even shifting. You keep your foot in it and that's about it


Technology has taken the fun and brutality out of life, and not in a good way. Anyone else remember when 400 horsepower cars could get fucking scary to drive? Now your grandmother could hit an 11 second quarter mile

+1. It doesnt actually even take 400hp... in my eyes, the scariest car that I can reasonably think of to try and drive quickly in the rain is a 260hp Porsche 930... A C5 Z06 despite having 400hp and all the nannies except ABS being able to be disabled, is a tremendously easy car to drive quickly.

Also I love that that was a cab which murdered the GTR in that drag race... seems like a coupe would be a much more fair fight and at the weight benefit, would be an even more dramatic ass kicking.

Damn, why do you have to bring up CS or CSS?

Memory lane...

I used to just only use the knife... 50:50 kill/die ratio BOOYAH!

It was fun.

You are "brutally" straight-forward and right about the cars.

Where do you work?

Thanks to this thread, I spent 10mins doing the math (albeit with a lot of assumptions).

Guys keep in mind, that horsepower is not the main player in acceleration, torque is. Torque to the wheels is not the same as torque at crank. With a 4.06 1st gear, and a 3.7 final drive, it's actually cranking out 9343Nm (6891lb-ft) to the axles at peak torque on powerband and on 1st assuming no drivetrain loss (wheel size will affect actual torque put on tarmac).

this is where it's at... 4000lb car running 8 seconds... and is still completely street legal

My 1 ton diesel only weighs 2000lbs more than this car. I find that amusing.

Realistically you're not even steering either, you're just telling the computer which way you want it to take you as quickly as possible since the traction computers and shit deal with making the car actually turn hard without spinning off the corner.

This is probably where the earlier math makes sense. The 400 and something avg HP to the road needed to hit 2s is much more easily achieved when you factor in the gearing.

I dont always agree with what you post but this is spot on

0-60mph: 1.63 seconds :eek:

Stock? I doubt it;

2002 Lingenfelter Chevrolet Corvette 0-60 mph 1.97 Quarter mile 9.1
2002 Dodge Viper Hennessey Venom 1000TT 0-60 mph 2.2 Quarter mile 9.4
2012 Ariel Atom 500 (V-8) 0-60 mph 2.3
2011 Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Super Sport 0-60 mph 2.4 Quarter Mile 9.6
2009 Bugatti Veyron EB 16.4 0-60 mph 2.4 Quarter mile 10.1

2012 Hennessey Venom GT 0-60 mph 2.5
2010 Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport 0-60 mph 2.5
2013 Caterham Seven R600 Roadster 0-60 mph 2.5
2006 Ultima GTR 720 0-60 mph 2.6 Quarter Mile 9.9

1600hp vs 570hp. I assure you 2.0 stock is not going to happen.

Alpha 16 is already outdated

1/4 mile in 7.81 seconds

Waaaaaay more respect for drivers that run a 7 in a 1960's RWD deathtrap


That just looked easy

is that car full weight and street legal though...? regardless, that's insane to run in the 7's in something that doesn't look like a top fuel dragster
