And thank you for the answer. I still almost can't believe my eyes. 0-60 in 1.95 secs in street tiresand on a slightly wet track. I'd say Lingenfelter is more magician than businessman

Yes it's the Lingenfelter Corvette 427 TT i think and yes it's street legal and I really love Lingenfelter because Lingenfelter would be one of the best Automobile Modifyers in the world.

That strange Dauer 962 Le Man was 2.7 seconds fast.



Then there was charming Espace F1 with F1 engine,
2.8 sec.




Production or not

i think he got banned for making that assumption, and one thing that would be faster than the Lingenfelter Corvette 427 TT would be the Lingfelt 427 TT engine in a 66" GT-40 or a new For GT

what are yall thinkin?

None of those cars are true production cars. There has to be a certain number of cars produced per year to make it a production car. Anyway the fastest production car 1/4 mile (which is what really counts) is the 1968 Plymouth Barracuda SS with the 426 hemi v8 with a 10.5 1/4 mile. while the 2003 Ferrari Enzo is a close third with a 10.8 sec 1/4 mile. The 1968 Dodge Dart with the 426 hemi had a 1/4 mile time of 10.5 (same as the Cuda) but crossed the finishline a mile an hour slower. Even with less horses the American mucle blew away the compatition. http://www.autofacts.ca/classics/fast.htm

Re: Fastest Production Car

I just read through this whole thread, and I dont think anyone commented on how amazing it is that the F1 (argue this all you want, I'm going with the democratic choice) is the fastest car proven by runs after so many years! You would think after 10 years they could've beaten the F1...

That's what I think is so amazing about the f1

That's exactly what makes the F1 stand out so much in car history, there have always been best cars but none that have accomplished such a feat and held it for over 10 years.

a couple posts up about the 1/4 mile times....poor man is so wrong.

The koinseeg CCR does it in 9.0 flat. With a top speed of 242+ mph.

Most of these cars people are talkin about are NOT PRODUCTION...

Where'd you read 9.0 flat and where is the 242 top speed come from?

If these are estimates say so, otherwise someone might think they're verified and go displaying them on some other thread.

check out the segg's website under ccr it says standing 1/4 mile in 9 flat... With 800+hp i dont think that its that far off if not the truth...and why would they need to lie...the car is one of the best production cars in the world if not thee best

Re: Fastest Production Car

If it's in the segg's website I'll be less skeptical, but until that gets verified by an independent party, I remain unconvinced. It's nothing against you it's just that it's far too easy for estimates or unverified data to be a little different from the truth.
