Holy shit...that thing would break traction in top gear. Weighs about 850kg...that's just...f***ed lol.

Edit: All that technology and it's got S15 air vents? Pfft...

I'm kind of interested to see how they designed the brakes. They don't look all too impressive from the images but if it can hold grip enough to accelerate that fast and perform equally well on the braking it should be great on the track, as long as you don't understeer into the wall.

Edit:

guessing it may be the same as the MT900R

AP 6-piston front calipers, AP 4-piston rear calipers, AP 378mm ventilated front disc, AP 355mm ventilated rear disc, Manually adjustable front / rear brake bias, Optional front and rear upright carbon brake ducts

i will believe it when the numbers are confirmed. not saying it isn't possible or that it won't be fast, but all the info comes from the IAD press release. hasn't been tested by anyone else yet.

also i think this will me be more of a straight line hero than a track car. it will be quick around a track but i think it will be too powerful to be super quick. i think round a tight track much less powerful cars will out perform it, kind of like how the veyron isn't that quick around a track.

    • 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.
