on the cover of "car and driver" they tested the vernon top speed 253mph but i suppose the FXX can go around a track faster then the Vernon??
If the match is in Tokyo, no problem. Yakuza will make sure the local guy wins. Anywhere else in the world, all bets are off.
what is the Sref for that car? if Cd = .30 altitude = 1000 ft (standard atmosphere, ~56*F) then D = 48 [lbf/ft^2] * Sref [ft^2] an approximation i made: width = 6.6', height = 4' [assumpton] Sref = 26.4 [ft^2] that would bring the drag to ~1275 [lbf] @ 253 [mph]!!! (give or take 20 or so [lbf]) which equates to more than 1/3 of its curb weight, also at this speed C&D noted ~2 mpg this doesnt attempt to include drag added by downforce created by aero elements on the car.
Great Video thanks. Still would rather have a McLaren F1 over all of them, personally. Not really into the Bugatti.
Ferrari FXX would kill the buggatti.better aerodynamics and its wight is less than veyron which means better acceleration better topspeed if it has got enought Hp which of course it does,800 HP seems to be enough power
The Veyron is faster and quicker than Schumi's 2005 F1 car. 1,950kg 0-100kph 2.5sec (matching Valentino Rossi's Yamaha) 0-200kph 7.3sec (faster than Schumi's F2005) 0-300kph 16.7sec (F575M takes about a minute)!!! 0-400kph 55.0sec Apparently Ring time is like 7:30. Its featured in Car Magazine this month.
Needcash I believe the new Saleen S7 has 750hp. Charles anyway you can produce a valid source for those times? I remember a Top gear episode of the F50 going up against a 1990 Ferrari F1. The F1 car did 0-100(mph that is) in 3.7. That is a 15 year old car. I doubt a 2005 F1 car would take more then 3 1/2 seconds to do another 20mph to get to 200 kmh.
