    The S7 generated more downforce than it's weight. In theory meaning it could drive upside down.

    • @russelltalker
      @russelltalker 4 года назад +121

      Except it would be doing 160mph while theoretically weighing almost nothing. If it generated twice it's downforce then it would be as if it where doing 160mph with all of it's aerodynamics disabled and having no downforce beyond it's own weight. So you really need somewhere in excess of 2x it's own weight in downforce for it to be viable, then all you need is the tunnel. We have the car, any modern f1 car will do, it's just the tunnel that's missing.

The word spreads and apparently Caroll Shelby contact Saleen about it. Both man eventually agree that after this car, Saleen won't tuned another Shelby badged vehicle but both parties allowed the finished car to carry both legends name and remains the only official Shelby-Saleen.

    All the suspension underneath the car is tucked up and out of the way and replaced with a flat carbon fibre underbody which creates a low pressure zone under the car sucking it to the road and creating enough downforce that this car can literally drive upside down if it was going fast enough.

    You can techincally still buy a brand new Saleen S7. Back in 2016, Saleen announced it will produce limited edition S7 LM for $1 million. For that you will get slightly updated S7 with 1300hp engine and centerlock wheels among others. At first the project was mocked especially by one of the US based car site. With evidence suggest that Saleen had badly photoshopped old S7 publicity photos and claimed it as new S7. But in 2017 they unveiled the first S7 LM and interestingly it didn't have S7 Comp pack wings and it did not have facelift of SS7 that I mentioned in other comments of this video. At the best of my knowledge I haven't seen another S7 LM being produced and sold.

    I remember a few Saleens in my community back in the early 90s and I always thought they were the coolest Mustangs ever. They had this beautiful "flip flop" (as we called it lol) paint job that changed color as Sun light hit the car from different angles. They were also the coolest sounding cars "period". The sound that came out of those Dynomax mufflers were eargasmic. It's interesting to note that my lightly modified 08 Mazdaspeed 3 now has as much power as those old Saleens!? lol

    The smaller Clio RS and bigger Megane RS depending on generation (Clio II and Megane III); known for being the best hot hatch's around in their time and class.
    Might be a bit hard to relate considering you never got them.

    You guys forget to mention that Saleen also tuned electric cars in form of Tesla. At first it was called Foursixteen because that's the most powerful Tesla at that time but since there are new model such as P95 and P100. Now they were badged as GTX. You can choose which model of Tesla you want since Saleen doesn't actually add more power. What they do is add a new bodykits, they tweak the engine delivery and also makes the motors more noisy somehow. I'm not sure if they still offer it since that was like 4-5 years ago.

    Donut should start a series where they break down every single thing under the hood and what it does, slowly building up to more complicated components. It will be good for beginners like myself, it will help understand what everything does and how it effects the car as a whole. I think it could be done in a few episodes. You could make it fun. This will bring in donut fans, but also new fans who will be looking up stuff they don’t know.
