that site is garbage

1850hp RWD road car.....sif

There is a 1970-ish corvette in the U.S. with 2200HP. 3.5 seconds to 100kph? nah.. try 3.5seconds to 350kph. Full registration. No worries. I think Jay Leno owns it or is buying it. Its in the last Street Machine or Unique Cars that i have sitting at work.

Americans.

yeah nik is kick ass. but I can still picture it with http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j1GTf1T4_7Y cranking out my tape deck.

what sort of times does it run on street tires :)

Probably about 2 minutes then pop... pop....

I think 'street' tyres is a loose term over there haha.... Thatd be on some hefty slicks tho i think. I'll scan the article and post it up after work tomorrow.

i didn't post the quoted times because I didn't think they were that impressive given the power output.

anyway the article says 2.5 secs to 100kmh and a 10 sec flat quarter.

does anyone know the quarter mile time for the veyron?

ahh, i was referring to the 2200hp Corvette

ok, this sums up the 80s nicely. oh to have been a coke dealer or stock broker back in the day.

hmmm- Quattrovalvole

what's wrong with being a stock broker or coke dealer in the modern day? :)

Makes for a good pick up line i guess.

What can you LEGALLY do in a ferarri around the CBD of bris or sydney that you cant do in a civic? Pull chicks. THATS what.

Just so you can say youve got one.

I think it looks alright. Specs on that site are a bit funny, how does it make maximum power 1,850hp@6000rpm and max torque of 1,700ft/lbs@7000rpm?

And all this on 92 octane fuel :)

Where does it say RWD though? And if all it can do is a 10 flat 1/4 mile the veyron will have it covered

    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
