I bet there's an engine turbo combo out there to do it, that and a sequential gearbox, dif etc, oh and a carbon fibre chassis, all covered by our beautiful bodywork, now that'd be one street creeper to die for, must make a friend at an f1 team to fashion said chassis, st it really would last forever! Right that's next years project sorted then, wonder what itd cost?!??!?!?!!?

That calculator seems pretty realistic to me. Meant for road cars on normal tyres.

What about a rocket?

I bet you could get a solid fuel rocket thats within the weight, but it may only work for a couple of seconds.
