Re: Lamborghini Diablo fastest car in the world!!!

they have a track that owners will be allowed to use to test the speed of the car. what a rush that would be.

Especially if your last car was a ford and you're put into the seat of a beast you are yet to learn to tame.

Re: Lamborghini Diablo fastest car in the world!!!

it's not really difficult to produce 900hp out of a v12. ever heard of vector, how bout a concept car producing 1000hp, with good old american power, the bugatti, is a one time only car, no cars that you can buy can hit 253, they are all governed to 215, which is still a feat in its self. but i'm having only one problem with a lambo diablo hitting 255, aerodynamics are a key part in speed abilities, but it gets to a certain point that the aerodynamics actually lift the car off the ground, because it's causing lift. A good example of that is the ssc aero 8t, it is limited to 248, at 249, it has been proven, it actually lift a few inches from the ground. last time i checked there are few cars that were built to fly, and supercars aren't included. i think that what the bugatti hit, the 253, is great, and it's going to take a lot of money, and a lot of will power, and great design, from a dedicated team to beat that. Mclaren could do it using their engineering, but it's still hard. if the lambo hit 255, i have to hand it to the driver, he has a big set of balls, my stealth twin turbo can hit 168, i hit 120, and then you become aware of what can happen in fractions of seconds. i would want actual paperwork or some other proof that the car hit that speed.
