@reality check dude are you for real? Stop defending your comment. Why don't you take the reality check these guys are serving you!! You're taking this way too seriously!! Relax friendo!!
Its why I love Ford and that car!! to think areo from the 60.s, no big splitters, wings or active crap. pure in design, good for 300 plus. hats off Ford engineers for producing a timeless perfectly designed car that will last forever!!!!
What’s wonderful about aerodynamics is it scales pretty much perfectly until you hit about Mach 0.8 (a bit less than the speed of sound). What does change is how the car sits at different speeds and the change in airflow due to it. So it’s more a testament of how well the car is set up because the car has long been established as a good aero package.
Scott Mcgregor Well, the overall look of the car is basically the same the OG GT40, but it is NOT 60s aero. This GT has a floor pan and a splitter in the back, which is the main improvement that gives it less drag and more stability. The top of the car is also massively optimized.
How does it feel to be sporting the only 300mph club t shirt? For all you who think Bugatti chiron is officially faster, this is what it does in a standing mile for comparison. ruclips.net/video/RfGfGwIFYqk/видео.html 227mph and that is OFFICIAL!
@@Sidewinder5 ya no... the Chiron had unlimited track. This is the standing mile. That prototype Chiron would be lucky to break the 250mph in the standing mile.
Not according to Bugatti. They still claim they were the first production car to go 300mph. Even though it took them over 8 miles to get there and they did it 6 months AFTER the GT did. But hey once the lying media print it, it becomes THE TRUTH right? Just like in real life.
It's righteous to see a car go this fast. Good filming. It's better than watching a car race. I love straight out speed. The driver did well too. Thanks for the show.
Yeah, I'm with the others...It's not the car's power, aero or chassis that is the limiting factor...How many cars require tires to go that fast? None, until now. But, I''m sure they could have Michelin customize a tire for them...Michelin is really good at that, as we all know. But, maybe 325-330? That looks ludicrous just me writing it.
I AM NOT a ford fan by any means. But with that said.....DAAAAAAMMMNN!! very very impressive work gentleman and congratulations. Mad respect to all of you and ford for that extremely impressive achievement 👍👍👍👍👍👍
@Valkyrie 007, my point remains...the Bugatti takes several miles on a closed loop to hit top speed. The GT hits it in one mile and is still accelerating. HARD.
@Valkyrie 007 the Bugatti is a second generation, untold millions in development, all wheel drive, more cylinders/turbos, traction control, et cetera. One has an entire factory and billions of dollars behind it, the other has a small team of people who love cars. Anyone can drive the Bugatti fast, only requirement is your bank balance. The Ford is a driver’s car, one needs SKILL to drive this car. The Bugatti is at its top speed, the Ford is not. To me, what the GT team did is far more impressive, because the Bugatti team built upon the more than a decade of factory work developing the Veyron and then learning from it. Multimillion dollar sales tag, and plenty of return from those customers (paid off much of the R&D/tooling costs). The bias you exhibit is apparent to all but yourself. Have a nice day.
@Valkyrie's 007 Ignore him. he can't get it through his head that the GT is tuned to hell and back whilst the Bugatti is a standard road car. He's too thick to know that any car could be tuned to 2700bhp like this GT if the budget was thrown at it
In a mile?! Are you fucking kidding me?! That’s fucking crazy!! I don’t know if people understand how difficult that is to attain. That’s inane... straight up... period. Incredible acceleration. Overcoming that much drag as speed increases. It’s fucking crazy. Congrats to the builders of this vehicle and the dude who drove it to this incredible record who apparently needs to ice his gargantuan balls! IMO it is one of the most beautiful and iconic designs in Motorsports.
Bobby Brummett not with that attitude. Just as this dude believed he could break the 300 mph barrier so must you. Look forward to your post of you purchasing your dream car, the Ford GT.
