You can have 1 gorillion horsepower in a nitro fueled dragster but you still wouldn't buy it and drive it

>>29015731
Why does it have a periscope?

I'm not meming like that wheel gap guy, I mean theres like 3" of gap between the roof and intake snorkel, why? Shouldn't it be closer to the roof?

But I want to spend way more $$$ per HP than that

>>29015731
Wtf do you do with 2031hp in a road car? Also that much from a boosted 6.6L must be lag city

>>29015731
So you gotta wait five years to get one?

>>29015851
Yeah man it's like so hard to buy in the parts for an LS based V8 like dude there's just one tibetan monk who hand forges these LS pistons in the mountains and there's a 5 year waiting list cos he's the master and everyone is trying to get these aftermarket GM parts.

>>29015731
words can't express how little interest i have in 1000+ hp limited run hyper cars that cost millions of dollars. i'd genuinely be happier owning a cool 80s or 90s car with 250hp

>>29015731
Using anymore than 700 horsepower is not realistic IRL.

>>29015857
yet you people get so emotional over the mclaren F1.

>>29016242
mclaren f1 isnt just a piece of shit made to go fast in a straight line, it actually won real races

>>29016247
but the Car in the OP wasn't made to go fast in a straight line, either. it can actually set a lap record around a track, unlike the F1.

>>29015738
I really doubt there's much lag. You got a large displacement engine feeding two relatively small turbos. I'm sure it has some kind of pseudo "anti-lag" too. This is why there's no replacement for displacement.

>>29016251
also BoP shit isn't "real" races. by the time the Mclaren F1 raced, european motorsports were a joke after Group C ended.

never seen a hennesey in my entire life doubt I ever will

I'd rather go with Lingenfelter's upgrades.

>>29016277
You could probably say that about lots of things in your life. Pussy being another.

>>29015731
Respect to Hennesey for making it in such an exclusive business, but his cars have always been devoid of soul.

>>29016295
manual gives it more soul than any of its semi-auto rivals. it also isn't retro slop like the gordon murray thing.

>>29015731
I dont like the way the tail lights look. shant be buying it

>>29016310
you're glazing a conman. murray's cars are great

>>29016418
please share your experience of having driven murray's retro slop.

>>29016430
gud

>>29015736
Probable answer: design choice. Engineering answer: to not ingest turbulent air generated when the roof is off.

>>29016240
It was 570 or 630 or some shit that the f1 had and it was somewhere around 240. I'd rather an f1 or saleen s7 or some aftermarket mc12/enzo/ferrari or lambo with bigger turbos that isn't absolutely undriveable.

>>29016626
There was an f1 and an f1gt that you're thinking of. A 575gto or something is another sick high power light Ferrari. The mc12 and Enzo are pretty similar but I don't give a shit enough even though mc12s are way cooler.

>>29016251
You mean whoever is nuts enough to set a lap record at nurburging? Cars have been powerful it's mostly light weight and downforce. 90s style le mans style cars are basically the fastest now but with more powerful medium displacement and higher boost that are in the production models. Nothing that is significantly fast doesn't look like half a race car compared to when tires were shit and it was not as easy to get power as nowadays.

>>29016251
For noobs the f1 gt had more aero while the f1 was low drag. You'd want the double lip and huge wing and skirts plus the several hundred pound lighter race frame to actually set records compared to literally flying off the road trying to do some hard turn at even 60-100 in some heavy piece of shit that doesn't have downforce.

>>29015731
>doing over 160 without massive front and rear wing and roof scoop+diffusers
Isn't the gumpert appolo basically the best car to be using for handling in a high speed road car? Why can't someone just put more power in that?

>>29015731
How big of a turbo can you put in a Lamborghini Gallardo without needing to remove the diffuser?

>>29015734
>just stop liking women bro, you will never have sex and a girlfriend anyway

hennesey are not real cars

>>29016644
well, joke on you. I did it, i now jerk off to (wo)men and men.
The concept of even getting close to a female for me has become so absurd that even those shitty FnF movies would feel more realistic when compared to it
