Spoiler Alert........this car is fast.

It is technically possible but anyone that tries is gambling with their life. Not recommended. Closed course, no wind, fresh asphalt, fresh tires rated for the speed attempt: that's the only moderately safe way to do it. Even then, a rogue gust of wind can prove fatal.

I wonder how many years again for reaching another kmph for a cars. Maybe it will added some new tech
 
 
Those hypercars look like cars from those old Hanna‐Barbara cartoons.
 
nice if you just happen to have a few mil burning a hole in your pocket but otherwise a total waste of time on a real road in real traffic you can't even do those sorts of speeds on the autobahn what with traffic the way it is now unless you wait till 3 or 4 am

PS: SSC stole the name of a lizard from NZ and it's pronounced Too ah tara not twatara
 
The most ridiculous Bugatti Bolide..


Unfortunately You'll never see it driving on the road somewhere..
It's a track-only vehicle...
Limited to 40 units and 4 Million Euros a pop.

The Bolide can accelerate from 0–100 km/h (62 mph) in 2.2 seconds, 0–200 km/h (124 mph) in 4.4 seconds,
0–299 km/h (186 mph) in 7.4 seconds, 0–401 km/h (249 mph) in 12.1 seconds,
and 0–501 km/h (311 mph) in 20.1 seconds and a top speed projected of more than 501 km/h (311 mph).

Thats wind noise and either the mic being just bad or too close to the exhaust so levels are 'peaking'. Usually when most 'tubers do it. Their cameras are attached much closer to the car and out of the draft of the vehicle when its moving so no wind noise.

'cause it is a de-tuned F1 engine from the '80. turbo F1 era in that "space-frame chassis", road version of a car. :cool:
 
Can we get some love for some super charged warbird noises?

I love me some spitfire noises but nothing does supercharger whine quite like the P-51 does.


A close second would be the BF109



Spitfire MkXVII has supercharged griffon engine but the supercharger whine isnt so apparent

I see that nobody has posted the new electric four-seat Nur record yet. Now, it’s not really a production car and the record itself should be read with a ton of asterisks, but… fast car go fast, so:

No way that will be allowed to make production with that top speed.
At least in the majority of countries.
 
@Caring1
There are production cars with far higher top speed. You can’t use it, but it’s technically there. And the reason this was so fast on Nur wasn’t really due to top speed - it’s not a power track - and more to do with the fact that it’s a stripped out near race-spec prototype on slicks.
 
I would buy one.


:EDIT:

Also

Some mad engineering anyone?

 
@FreedomEclipse
…can the chassis even handle that? I need to watch the video in detail to see what was done, but just adding more power is rarely a good solution.

Yes - I dont recall the owner using the car for anything else other than drag racing and maybe being towed on a trailer to car shows. Chassis has been reinforced with a roll cage.

Would love to see it do a lap of the Nürburgring but I dont think it would make it to the finish.
