You bastard! , a sapphire/silver ACR! thats an incredibly hard car to come by, and is BY FAR the best color ever put on ANY car. It looks absolutely stunning in person. Pictures just don't do it justice, I have yet to hear anyone say a bad thing when they see one in person.

That the color I always wanted.

Hmmm. According to the power to weight figures, my 3100lbs, GT2 w/ GT700 with a slightly better figure(4.42 lbs per hp vs 4.46), might be faster to 200 than a Veyron? Not bad.

Weight matters to a certain point, but over 100 brutal insane HP is the only thing that will fight the exponentially increasing aero drag.

a 700crank HP GT2 will get destroyed in the 100-200 range.

No way. You'd be around the same time as the RT-12.

Have you tried a timed run to 200 with your car, Scott? Seems like you'd be close to the Veyron.

I wish. I have no place to do something like that where I live. But I think my car would run between the Veyron and the Viper.

Just checked my Pbox graphs from my last track day. I ran 1.5 seconds faster from 100-150 mph than the Veyron did (4.48 sec compared to Veyron's 5.98 seconds). Once past 100 mph, my car would be running away from the Veyron up to 200 mph. Pretty confident I'd beat it by a solid 2 seconds or more.

Yes I think you would beat the Veyron and be a bit behind the Viper.

Any way you slice it you have a very fast car!
