I would actually have my way with that NSX!! DIRT!!

 

[Englebert]

 

[Gaz.]

Why does it need such serious front downforce?

 

[Englebert]

I think it has something like 980bhp and is FWD... i guess it's to try and stop wheel spin.

 

[Gaz.]

FOOOK. But that's going to do shine all in the first few gears!

 

[MaLicE]

pikes peak car isnt it??? they make them so high powered because when they get near the top of pikes peak the altitude means they loose 70% of the power or something...

I've never seen a wing like that on the front of a car, ever !

I like the Evo's back to front graphics.

 

[jamesp24]

Think id rather have a huge splitter.

 

[BIFCAIDS]

that cars driven on track btw guys, (im not being funny btw) im sure its like an american time attack car or something

 

[MaLicE]

im 99% sure it was originally made for pikes peak.

 

[BIFCAIDS]

proberly was malice but ive only ever seen it "ragged" round a track

 

[MaLicE]

yeh your right its a time attack car, was used on pikes peak too or one very similar...

 

[Christopher]

Yeah, i'm with Alice on that... looks like a PP climb car. Not sure if it was modified for PP though. Would need more clearance for a start.

They have near to 1000bhp at sea level, but lose over half that, by the top of the course.

Sorry master...

Yep, a Scion used in Time Attack in the US. FWD champion and as fast as a 911 Cup car! The guy who made it normally does drag cars...

 

[Tav]

Given that 4WD UK time attack cars struggle to beat a 300bhp FWD BTCC car I wonder how the Scion would get on.

 

[Englebert]

Time Attack cars over here use road tyres i think, and obviously a BTCC driver will be pretty handy...

Having said that, our 'measly' 200bhp Elise is as fast a most Time Attack cars.

 

[jon_r]

888's

Given that 4WD UK time attack cars struggle to beat a 300bhp FWD BTCC car I wonder how the Scion would get on.

Uk TA cars are going quicker than BTCC cars, well the Pro cars are.

But then they should, with 800+ bhp!! only advantage a BTCC car has is slick tyres.
