Transfers all that power to the road very well!
get a motorcycle... for a fraction of the cost, you could get a WSB homologation model, most of them should do 0-300km/h in under 20 seconds.
always made me laugh when some idiot pulled up next to a bike with his latest GTi or Porshe, and started revving...
what part of 0-100 in around 3 seconds don't they get :D
even a factory sports bike.
the thing about all that power or speed is nowdays, if your not on a race track, you will probabley loose your license, and the car or bike. maybe go to jail. or the guy in front is only doing 90km/hr and the road is too busy to pass in a car.
but i still own a couple of fast toys :)
Because not everyone wants a bike? :)

My Hayabusa would do 140+ in first, a mates ZX10 would to 160Quote:

Yeah, possibly, but like a v8 supercar, while based on a commodore, is almost impossible to drive on the road, they would have to change so much to handle that sort of power. Will be good to see a road test by top gear or the likes.Quote:

my old clubby would break traction even at 100mph in the rain, it was dynoed at 420hp at the wheels and an estimated 570 engine hp. A mate has a twin turbo clubby that breaks traction at 100mph in the dry, that thing is scary. I love fast cars, bikes or boats
