I'm sure Bugatti will come out with yet another version of the Veyron now!
2000 bhp probably won't accelerate that Lambo to 300. Keep in mind the faster you want to go, the horsepower requirement exponentially increases. It's not a linear progression.
William is right I'm afraid. As bad ass as that murcielago would have been, it probably won't happen. 2000hp ain't gonna get you to 300mph if you don't have the right tires either
U mean that car that they claimed 2000hp on that they never started, same one that claims they can reach 330mph, been almost a month later and still no dyno sheet, was just a guy with money stroking his ego
I think the twin turbo murcielago SV with 2000 WHEEL HP will do it if they try
So a 30 mph increase from their last record? That's crazy fast. Wonder if they'll be the first to do 300
Yea it's pretty bomb I don't think anyone who knows about it would doubt it.
I'm with Patrick the c6rs is what a corvette should be, lighter,gobs of N/A power, and an amazing interior, plus that engine sounds rediculious
The P&M C6RS is at the very top of my dream car list. That car is absolutely a super car. And 8.1L V8?! Sign me up!!!
@Nick. The Z06 and ZR1 corvettes are definitely supercars. Also could even say the Grand Sport but maybe not. People argue that no Vette can be a super car because it's "just a corvette" but honestly if Chevy killed the base model no one would say it
Lets not start this guys, but Ford should bring the GT back to compete with the ZR1 and Viper! 'Merica!
@David. I agree. Ford is now the only American car company that doesn't build a supercar.
Ford needs to bring this back so we can see this matchup again, and against the Viper as well.
I would have to agree the vette more for me not necessarily this one but in general
And Matt R- you came out the best and sounding mature, don't worry about these guys!
Who cares about being able to 'maybe' handle it?! It's a sick fast sexy car with kick ass hp. AND street legal. There should be celebrating after hearing this!
You're wealthy, drive a Porsche AND from Jersey?! Wow when did you sign up for Jersey Shore.
Fantastic car period. As for Matt R, keep on trolling man, you've more than proven you drive a Porsche have wealthy parents and are a total asshat...... Keep up the attitude maybe someday someone will love you for more than your money.
And I'm sure it's not set up to put down 1700hp when on the streets. They probably turn the boost wayyyyy down.
Damn lmfao you guys take stuff really seriously on here. But i will say my sorry if i upset anyone but with my first coment just remember its my opinion and we all have one
Matt, that's great you do that. But they did not ruin this car. It set a world record. That ludicrous to say this is ruined.
Feel free to call bs i come from a wealthy family and my father has a great job. I no what i do and im damn good at it. Its not like i travel the world i stay in my state JERSEY. So im going go worry about bigger problems like the tree on my house
All of you who critsize and say "who needs all that power as a dd" - Your all idiots. You do realize that "street legal" and "daily driver" are completely seperate things. Just because it's "street legal" doesnt make it a dd.
No car will make 1500 hp at 2000 rpm which is the powerband you'd drive at in the city so why is it pointless? You don't use the power all the time.
But hey when I was your age I would brag to people about the sweet cars my dad had. But as I got older I realized two things: 1) It just makes you look like an ass. 2) There is always someone out there with more money and nicer things
Porsche 944? I can get one on Craigslist right now for 3 grand... When you get older you'll realize only douche bags use cars to validate themselves. As for ruining the car... He made it set a world record. What have you done?
On the other hand though, Matt, really? I call BS that u drive a Porsche @ 15... Mainly bec u don't have a license
I kinda agree with Matt, as a daily driver a 1500hp anything is a bit ridiculous... Not saying u couldn't use it as a DD but it's kinda pointless
Its funny how you all gang up on me when none of you can handle the car and dont say you do bc im 15 and i race porsches with SCCA so shut up. Your right i cant handle that much horse power but at least at 15 i no what im doing and drive a porsche
Oh yeah Matt? Then why is the worlds fastest street legal car (1963 Corvette 2200bhp) also the guys daily driver? He handles that power all day long. Just because you couldn't, don't make assumptions about other people's skills.
Matt just cause u don't know how to drive doesn't mean the car is useless, people have 1000+ HP cars as daily drivers, should keep your mouth shut about what u don't know, keeps u from looking stupid
They ruined the car. No person can handle 1700 hp on the street. All they can use it for is to drive straight. No point to it at all really nothing to be proud of here
this is so far away from a normal ford gt it has more in common with a dragster lol. how crazy does that rear end look with those etc exhausts etc, thats what makes a veyron ss so cool, is that it does 260mph+ but doesnt look so unfinished from the outside. Amazing achievement anyway. :)
Lmao @ 215s not even the front tires are 215s the rears are easily over 300.
215 would be a small tire, thats like passenger car size, that's probably around a 300
Even to this day my favorite car of all time is breaking records. Just imagine if Ford had the balls to make a new GT....
Eat that, Bugatti! I think McLaren just gave that Ford a high five.
I wonder If he used the bathroom before he did this
And ford, have you taken notice that these cars are still boss of the roads? With slightly outdated engines? Get those bad boys back into production! Give the viper some tail lights to focus on
Omg! What a jump! There has never been a mph jump this substantial ever!
Nobody is going to tune a Veyron. What would you even do to it? Add another turbo? I'd take the Veyron, sell it, and then buy the Ford GT with a ton of extra cash left over.
I cant believe its street legal!!!!!
@Jacob. An over priced Beetle? Really? Uh no not even close. I'm not a huge fan of the Veyron either but there is no doubt that it is an engineering masterpiece. And it's certainly not over priced. In fact they lose money on each one they sell.
The Veyron takes three times the amount of road to reach a lower speed. The Veyron also had/has the backing of a multi-billion dollar conpany(VWAG) to reach such achievements. I think these guys are making great progress with this GT
@ Paul, I ain't lol
Gayron SS is a overrated overpriced Beetle. The GT is a one of a kind car.
Don't kid yourself Matt.
Just saying, the Veyron looks way better than this lol but I do love the gt!! :)
Yeah haha how much more are you going to tune the veyron? It's pretty complicated enough haha.
The Vayron is already tuned to perfection, but the Ford GT can still do better.
Ahh i love seeing this
Screw the Gayron SS.
And the Veyron SS costs 10 times more
Hell to the yes!!
WHY NO VIDEO?!?!!!?!?
But a veyron couldnt look as good doin it.
Holy shit! That is crazy fast!
Tune up a veyron ss and it would beat that record
Damn. Congrats. That's awesome.
That is crazy fast for one mile!
283mph?...dayum!
Greatest car ever. They need a video
I wanna go for a ride in that thing
My favorite car in the world!<3
So there's no video??:/
Go Ford GT! Such a great car :3
