But the Schubeck is only 1200ft lbs of torque which is 1627Nm compared to 1760Nm for the Weineck.

I'd love to see the fuel consumption on that, you'd probably drain the tank with in a couple of minutes at full throttle.

I guess VW should have just used that rather than much about with the Veyron

You see the stupidity too do you? Soundwise it would also be a huge improvement . . .

Sorry but the car looks bloody stupid. It look like a CHAV has put a MOD KIT on the bloody thing. WHY. Arrrrrrrrrrrr.

But after you get over looks. The cars performance is amazing. I would love too see a video clip of the car in action.

How on earth can you put that power down the tarmac and pull those figures . . . Velvet feet and endless trying I suppose.

In Micra speak.."Fugly"..........

I wonder what they've had to do to fit a 13 litre engine in the chasis. Looks like a huge increase in front track. Putting down anything approaching 600bhp in a rear wheel drive only Cobra is extremely difficult so this must be virtually undriveable if the driver/ pilot gets a bit enthusiastic.

Who would want to buy one at the price anyway, even if you are one of only fifteen owners with one of these monsters...OK apart from the usual suspects..

Cheers,

Tony
