Enzo Dethrones Mclaren In R&t!
#1
to be honest, i didn't think that the Enzo was going to have the *****, but have you guys read the July Road & Track? they have the Enzo beating out the "king" McLaren F1 in 0-60 (3.3), 1/4 mile (11.1), skidpad (1.01g) AND slalom (73.0)
that is just insane, excuse me while i go change my pants.

I wouldn't get upset. It took ten years and a million dollar car to top the skidpad by 0.02. Skidpad is the same as the Z06 and Viper.
All of those test numbers mean **** ALL for those 2 cars. They are meant for high speed on a real race track. 0-60, quarter mile, 200 ft skidpad, 600 ft slalom? Apply these to a road course. They never go SLOW enough for the skidpad to mean anything, they never have to swerve back and forth 4-5 times in that tight of situation either. 0-60? ONCE, at the start line IF they have a standing start. Numbers for the second half of the quarter would reflect acceleration out of a corner, I guess.
They need to get on a track and compare instantaneous G on high speed corners. Acceleration from 60 to 150 mph. Real data that would reflect the purpose of these cars.
Put some R-compounds on a Mini Cooper S and it throws out slalom and skidpad numbers like that. And those cars came with rubber not far short of R-compound.
BTW The Mclaren is FAR sexier than the Enzo. F50 is better looking than both. Pagani Zonda C12 is where I would spend my money if I won a big lottery.

well, how long did it take ferrari to reach the same level as the mc laren f1? plus the 3.4 0-60 that the mclaren had are for the US legal mclaren.......they turn in 3.2 when they come out of the factory

i don't mean breaking parts...... those exotics are pretty reliable i heard...hehe.
But i think the car that will top the enzo is the veyron. costing $1,100,000 at 1001 hp, that **** better be on top.
