10 years development
Millions and millions spent

And beaten.

I know what'll be more reliable, easier to drive, better powerband, more controllable though.

Outright speed isn't always best..

And anyway, im waiting for it to be beaten by 3.6 litres, 40v, and two turbochargers, and about 1/100000 the budget of both the supercars.

Gold star to the correct guess....

I'd still rather a 8.2 V8 top fuel car with 8,000bhp that gets to 300mph in under 5 seconds

did ya know top fuel dragsters have their exhausts pointing upwards for down force, and have 16 fuel injectors because the fuel cools the engine, if one of the spark plug stopped firing the engine would explode with hydraulic lock because of the sheer amount of fuel goin in.
