I do believe The Vectra would get smoked against this one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

1963 Corvette is a street-legal car that exceeded 210 mph in the quarter mile
Going from zero to 60 mph in one second
2,400-horsepower, twin-turbo-charged Corvette
Then the Corvette reached the quarter-mile mark in 6.95 seconds at 210.54 mph -
the fastest-ever recorded drag strip run by a street-legal car.

See Link below.

yeah too bad this muscle car can’t hit 407km/h (253mph).
this car is not “faster” than a bugatti…its QUICKER, but not faster. The fastest modified street legal car i’ve heard of is a 1988 corvette that does somewhere around 258 (i can’t believe it either).

its all muscle so of course its gonna have more bhp but it does lack in top speed and handling
muscle cars cant corner for shit
also bugatti is also a luxury car
also the # of turbos doesnt mean instant bhp

My hat goes off to the guy, a nice car, made even nicer and doing that much work on it to give it thats many horses. Who cares how he got it to go that fast, nitrous or not it is still the fastest road legal car, put some nitrous on a veyron and it would still have a hard time keeping up with this.

1971 Vauxhall Vectra? Pretty sure he said the car name was the Victor and that the Vectra was launched in the 90s

Actually, Ninja, if I’m not mistaken, the Veyron actually uses four, (yes four) turbos to achieve its 1,001 bhp. That said, it doesn’t use Nitro, though I’m not sure the Red Vector 2 does, either. Does it?

Thats absolutely amazing indeed but i don’t like how they take a dig at the Veyron. The first thing they have to realise is that Veyron has a 1000 BHP engine, not some engine with 50 million turbochargers in it. That makes it engineering brilliance, strining a ton of nitrous to an engine doesn’t. Plus a Veyron goes fast arround the bends too, i doubt this will even turn.

I hate this ignorent people who diss proper engineering.
