McMurtry Speirling

[AR3-GP]

Insane for any hypercar, but when you notice it´s RWD....

Thanks to the fan, there's no drawback to all that power on one axle.

Just came across this video and could only chuckle:

Chuckle indeed. Timeslip bragging rights is all coming down to traction off-the-line, so once the contestants all have surplus torque to all wheels, optimised tyre mu, TC etc - all that remains is DF. Enter the Spierling.

No doubt there are those that will purchase a toy based on timeslips but for most it comes down to the total driving experience over the years of ownership. Emphasis may vary.

A toy wich is the only production car faster than any F1 car on several aspects, slow corners, braking at least on final stage (when speed decreased below, let say, 200km/h), and off the line acceleration.

Those are some arguments to spend millions on any hypercar, I like toys like this

One thing missing is that you cannot rev it up...

Well, actually you can. Sounds a bit like a ducted fan RC-plane though.

The kind of people who buy these cars have more than 1 car I think. A petrol for the noise. A McMurtry for the insanity acceleration.

. . . and the insane cornering Gs.

This thing is just crazy
Formula E should just be a bunch of these

Nuts that it has 2 tonnes of downforce when stationary.

A blanket of nitrogen a few miles thick accelerating at 9 m/s tends to have that effect. It's all about skirt efficacy. Just don't ride a curb mid-corner...

Take 10 to Monaco and put retired drivers in for a 15 lap shootout!

Maybe we could get a bunch of these to clean up tracks when it rains?

That´s the best use you can think about for a car wich is faster than F1 cars on starts, low speed corners and braking from medium speed?

...a car wich is faster than F1 cars on starts, low speed corners and braking from medium speed...

For around 10 laps. Then it is much slower than an F1 car. So maybe street sweeping is not too terrible a fate for it.
