It was a leading question intended to point out that pure horsepower isn't everything ;)

 

I understand pure horsepower is not everything, and weight is a huge factor but do you think the 1001BHP Veryon would be taken by a 700 BHP Supra, I don't, would love to see the race though :D

 

It has 4 wheel drive

Aero dynamics are superior

300 more BHP

 

that should do it IMO

 

Jamies car is fantastic so its no knock at that or any other 700 BHP Supra just dont see it myself

It would still spank it, 1000 BHP against 700, no contest

 

1000hp 4wd transmission loss + extra weight I would say if JP's supra hooked up it would be pretty even.

seeing as how it took one well over 4 miles on top gear to hit 250 and BL's car hits 246 in under a mile from a standing start they are not all conquering, I will be more than happy to embarrass one at bruntingthorpe.;)

thats what i was going to say .... ish ,

 

but i agree a well setup 700+ would be a good match for a veron. id love to see it happen

I reckon a real 850bhp supra would beat one, on the small video it looks worse than it was, with my current setup im sure it would be a lot closer.

 

Whats the 1/4mile time on a veyron? edit, veyron is 10.8 at 140mph.

 

Whifbitz supra was trapping at over 140mph with 850bhp, on a roll Pauls old setup on the Gt42RS would win imo.
