Default White gold car faster then S-1000rr TRUE


Have you ever seen one of these?



It's a Mercedes Benz owned by an Abu Dhabioil billionaire (naturally).
Featuring the newly developed V10 quad turbo
with 1,600 horsepower and 2800nm of torque
0-100km/h in less than 2secs, 1/4 mile in 6.89 secs
running on biofuel.
That is NOT stainless steel, people; it is WHITE GOLD!

1/4 mile in 6.89 seconds... Total B.S. Not even remotely possible.... That car weighs 3800 lbs; even with 1600 HP it will be struggling to get out of the 9's and into the 8's and that's IF it can get any traction... As a RWD Car, it can't get enough tyre under it to get there.

Pro-Stock NHRA Cars have the same HP and weigh 1500 lbs less to turn 6.7's and 6.8's not to mention the HUGE freaking slicks they need to get the power down.

+1 I agree

Plus this large post looks very unorganized! -1 for not editing this!

With enough money, you could easily be faster than A STOCK S1000RR. What if you dump all this money into a motorcycle though...

+1. A white gold car doesn't seem excessive at all. Gold is much softer than steel though, so unless he's stupid, that's at least some alloy of some sort. Hopefully light weight for that kind of hp. Anyway, I hope they start coming out with white gold s1000 parts. Actually, make them highly enriched uranium, so that not only can I make people feel inadequate as I blow past them giving them the finger, but I can give them cancer as well, just to rub it in....sigh, oil money....funny that he made it run on 'biofuel'. Why not just buy a nuclear reactor and put some bridgestone's on it.

Thumbs down



The numbers simply dont add up! White gold is considerably heavier, softer & costlier than carbon fiber & aluminum and that huge performance/safety/cost hurdle aside the price point of just the R&D, tooling etc.. for such an endeavor is well north of 2 Million US$ & would take at least a year with a full skilled crew!! This for 1 time project......, i call BS!

No info on what shop was responsible for a world first, any impartial evaluation of speed etc...etc....! Total BS.

Its chrome vinyl at best.......guaranfookinteed!
