Nurburgring Nordschleife laps compared: Posrche 918 VS Lamborghini Huracan Performante VS SCG 003C. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dl76-s_m_q8 Laptimes: Porsche 918: 6:57 Lamborghini: 6:52.01 SCG 003C: 6:40 The SCG 003C Race car has 500 horsepower (372 kilowatts), and the car was running at the required GT3 weight of 2,976 pounds (1,349 kilograms) while on race tires. The SCG 003S will have semi slick street legal tires, produce 800 hp (596 kW), weighs less than 3,000 pounds (1,360 kilograms) and has a top speed of 217 miles per hour (349 kilometers per hour) and will be able to lap the Ring in just 6:30 seconds according to Glickenhaus.
I would like to see an actual video of an actual SCG003 Stradale do it, and not just a deduction. I believe his claims are credible, but deductions are deductions...
They just took pole for the N24! Very very impressive. Congrats, and good luck in the race this weekend!
704 ran P1 until the first round of pit stops (6-8 laps in) started to shuffle the lead around. The accident with the Merc cost them about 15 minutes. Until 704 dropped out of the race (I think during the last third of the race; I was in bed when it happened), it ran as high as 12th (IIRC), and essentially never dropped from being a lap and some change back from the front runners. The Merc that ran into them sustained a lot more damage. I think it was in the pits for an hour. Not sure why 704 didn't finish. Haven't heard anything from Jim on FB or in the media. 702 finished, but had a fuel issue that forced them to pit earlier and earlier as the race went on, so the car dropped further and further back. EDIT: The Nurburgring's highlight real video shows in car footage of 704 going through a double right hander (not sure the name of the track section) and losing control in the middle of the second bend. Car looked stable. Not sure if it was driver error, something on the track, puncture, etc.
Does anyone have any info (perhaps JG himself) as to when production on the stradale will commence? Also any truth to the rumor of a 500-600 hp version priced around $350k in the works?
The lower HP car is the next SCG model, I think it will have an all new design, but it's a few years away.
Just saw the pic of the SCG 004. Lets just say its the firts new car i feel compeled to buy. If ferrari had built a Mcalren f1 this would be it.
Wow, where did you see that? Did Jim show it to you in person? I'mvery curious to see what it looks like..
Spoke to jg at car show and he said theyre going with koenigsegg motors from now on. V8tt. he drove 003 in rain from house north of nyc to long island and back!
SCG 004s http://www.roadandtrack.com/new-cars/future-cars/news/a31300/apollo-is-back-with-a-car/ What happened? SCG has NOTHING to do with Apollo....(2017) Garella/MAT is NOT involved in 004s project...
My first impression without knowing what it was at all were not good to say the least. Why such tiny wheels?

I like it, but it would look way better with a lower roof life. That hump is too high imo to look good, but I'm sure it's that way for interior space and safety.
