RB30X Posted May 28, 2010 Posted May 28, 2010 I don't care who you are or where you come from, but if you don't think this car is hot, you're wrong. You can't road register one, or officially race one, but it does things for me I cannot say on a public forum. Oh and it broke (flogged) the GTR's record on the Nurburgring, and it should. http://www.ferrari.com/English/News/GT/Pages/100423_CAR_ferrari_599XX_record_nurburgring.aspx Quote
Quandary Posted May 28, 2010 Posted May 28, 2010 Yeah it looks better than the average Ferrari but it's an unfair comparison to compare it to a street legal saloon with half as many cylinders. They might as well have just taken an F1 car out there and bragged about it as they have done with this. Quote

You have to say Nissan did a good job. If you want a different perspective it's like the recent Eastern Creek Superlap contest. A backyard Civic did a 1:40.9, fastest NA FF - even kicked alot of turbos FRs, and the professionals CyberEvo only did 1:30.5. But lets look at the difference. The civic probably costed in total under $30 000. The professional CyberEvo maybe close to $400 000. Mind you the professional teams were going through Turbos every few sessions and were doing engine rebuilds everyday. It's two different worlds but a damn effort from the underdogs. Quote
zedevan Posted May 28, 2010 Posted May 28, 2010 The dr honda civic would have cost atleast double that, but is still impressive Quote
RBZ 260 Posted May 28, 2010 Posted May 28, 2010 man that is one hot ferrari. yeah bit unfair comparing it to stock GTR. than again if ferrari needed something like that to beat nissan than Nissan did realy well Quote
