Im moving to England right now! You cant even clean your car here in Australia without the coppers arresting you meanwhile across the pond this thing is caged, tubbed, twin turbo, massive reverse cowl, etc. just drool. Id trade the sunshine and beaches for a streeter like this anyday
6.90@207 is the record by a 55 Chevy here in the states. It's here on YouTube, but it wont let me post the "YouTube URL" ??? Theres 6 second cars all over this country (like the Chevelle you're talking about) that are driven on the streets!
In California its hard to make street legal cars that fast because of our laws. This car would not pass here in California, It would be classified "For off road use only" These cars I would not consider "Street Legal" at all. It's foggy what is legal!
Remember the fastest street car contest put on at the Street Machine Nationals? All cars were inspected, they had to pass all DOT reg's for the year of the car.
It all started on a street course through towns, on highways, through cities, obeying all road laws for 75+ miles, then back to the drag strip.
When back at the strip they had 5min to check and top off fliuds only! Then hands off your car until drag time.This should be the only way to officially obtain "fastest street legal car"
During the "fastest street car" contest, how you set up your car for the town/city run was exactly how the car had to be setup for the drag portion. No touching anything except topping off fluids between the city run and your runs down the strip!
No bumping the boost on your Turbos/SC. No programming or touching the timing. You can use any fuel, but no Nitro and Nitrous!
Not one of these cars on YouTube proclaiming to be #1 would of qualified for that contest!
probably not , even if it has 2800hp the gearbox can´t handle so high speed the world´s fastest car or whas is bugatti Veyron whit a top speed at 416 km/h
you cannot classify it as the worlds fastest street production car because you would need to be able to register it in any part of the world and i know where i live Melbourne Australia you cannot register it because it is tubbed has slicks and has a parishute.. maybe Brittains fastest but worlds no.. For the record there is Ford Cortina rego BWARND runs 6.9 secons 1/4 in a counrty called Australia
You can't compare that to the veyron... I mean, the Bugatti is a luxary car, its got airbags, AC, and much other luxary stuff... and it can to 245mph. so the veyron is way cooler!
it dont touch an American Pro Stock. Now if you want to try a V8 that is Street legal and dont run a Turbo, nitrous or a super charger and it runs a 8.55@155 in the 1/4 mile.
the guy who owns that car has the full interior, looks 100% stock and drive it home fromt he races. his name is jim Pancake. also if you really pay atention. i said super stock. whick means he has the original motor in it.
alright, fastest as in speed... not fastest around a track or around a corner. i would have assumed people who even knew what a bugatti was would know what speed is. and yes, it does depend on the street but that doesnt mean it has to be legal on every street in the world to qualify as the fastest street legal car. major kudos to this guy, shows that "average joes" can still put up with those "big wig" companies
Street legal.. bring that thing to Los Angeles California and see if it's street legal here.. Really don't think this will pass smog. Don't think it would be "street legal" here... sorry.
In the US maybe races are based on straight lines but in the EU i think the more popular races are the circuit runs , be it formula 1 or GT races , this car is just a street legal drag-racer and not as impressive , as a european i have to ask myself how does this corner ? Also tbh id take a dodge charger SE modified a bit over this one as this baby has to much horse power and the guy never talks about the mods he did on brakes , suspension , and the handling.
Dear jackassrocksmtv,The clip says street legal so when building a street machine you would think safety would be your number concern. Each time I go out on the highway in our v8 1939 Plymouth 5 window coupe I sure want to return safely. Its guys like you that give us car enthusiasts a bad name.
hi i live in wolverhampton by whit-more-reans were red victor 1 is and it is the worlds street legal car and i should know becuase ive seen it with me own eyes.
Why can't it do 0-60 in 1 second? What law of physics prevents that? There are sports cars that do it in 4 on street tires and alot less than 2000+ HP.
Look at dragsters who can reach up to 300mph in 3 seconds. Thats about 100mph per second. They are cars. So yes it is possible. Also with 2000 odd some bhp it is possible. You also have to think about how much tq the car has.
It may be the quickest, but I'm sure it's not the fastest. And I hope he never gets in an accident, because the completely unpadded rollbar tubing will kill him in a heartbeat. Other than that, it's great!
They say street legal, he has the MOT is this the original or the one after the engineering certificates were obtained.That scoop blocks 50 % of you view for starters so how safe is that.
Wholelotofshakingoin you are an idiot. who cares about safety, dont watch and comment on a race car video if you cry about safety. im just sayin dude.... GROW BALLS
It said street legal, safety is the most important aspect when building a street machine. Its wankers like you mate that give us car enthusiasts a bad name.
Well, just about all the european car lovers that have watched this vid saw that it uses and American V8. Not european V12 or V8. But anyways nice car.
