you might be right but check the link..
koenigsegg stats..... (http://www.fast-autos.net/koenigsegg/koenigseggccr.html)

those numbers look extremely optimistic and a true fightin words for the Mac F1

if i remember right those are just estimates and they have a full test planned for this fall sometime

yeah, but you can totally tell that the companies entire aim is to dethrone the F1. When the CC8S failed to do so, they added 200 horsepower and tried again...

I wonder when (and if) the 300 mph barrier will be broken by a non jet propeled car. If I owned a company, my whole thing would be trying to do it with under 1000 hp. (ie 999 :) )

^ that would be too impractical and would not allow for a street leagal road car. the car would just be good in a straight line.

So, a car with 999hp would be impractical and only go in a straight line?
Is that why Formula 1 cars have 900+hp and pull 3g's in the corners, hmmm, I guess they only go in straight lines too.

are those street legal road cars?????

read what i said buddy

Knew that was comin sooner orlater the big K was gonna be posted!

Actually at the C&D testing, the K-egg only achieved 23_MPH, it didn't break 240mph, they were optimistic, but failed.
