Hyp ~ Mclaren Lm vs...
I really think this would be the best battle of all time (Imo)

The Xj220 Twr and the saleen S7 competition. I really have thought long and hard on this and there both very equal and both are HDF's of there big brothers, All mean't for track use...

What do you guys think...

Name: Hp: Tq: weight: engine:
Mclaren Lm 680:550+?: 2415: V12 N/a
XJ220 TWR 680: 513: 2315: V6 Bi-turbo
S7 Competition 680: 650+: 2550: V8 N/a

Also Fun fact ~ Numbers produced
Mclaren Lm 5 (You should know that)
XJ220 Twr 5
S7 Comp 1

The FXX cranks out 800hp, while racing F1s have 600hp. The FXX would easily win.

Re: Hyp ~ Mclaren Lm vs...
In race spec the 97 GTR has 600hp. Derestricted I'm sure it would be around 680hp, but it never raced like that.

Power to mass ratio:
FXX: 800hp/1155kg = 0.6926
97 GTR: 600hp/915kg = 0.655

This alone would give the FXX an edge.

Remember, brake, tire, and suspension technology have advanced as well.

Re: Hyp ~ Mclaren Lm vs...
Good Call /\ The Fxx is much heavier... You always have to incompase weight into a true supercar comparison.

A couple of customer cars received high output engines, but there's never been any solid figures on their performance.

McLaren has never published any aerodynamic data for the any of F1 GTRs, so you can't make any comparison.

They were identical to the engines in the LMs.
