Rob Sabory’s ‘63 Vette ran deep in to the 6's on DOT tires with pump gas and all cooling and accessories connected. Makes a 6 second pass then hopes on the interstate and heads home without lifting a wrench

Outside of tires, fuel, and tune, that should pretty much be how it drives down the street. For Drag Week, the cars see over 1000 miles of road that ranges from ok to ones that look like they have been on the wrong end of bombing runs, many times, they’re also pulling trailers with spare parts, drag specific tires,…

To be fair to the YouTuber, he prefaces the math with using “normal street tires.” The numbers he gets are based on production cars with the tires they were available with from the factory. So yeah, you’re right, but you’re answering a different question than the YouTuber was answering. To be fair to you, the title of…

The correct answer is less than one second.

I like his method of working backward to the answer. He makes two mistakes:

Model S P100D is the new fastest. Motor Trend just recorded a 2.28 earlier this week.

Almost reads like a doge meme.

I thought Mazda introduced brake vectoring last year on some of their <$1M models, that functions in a similar fashion. It piggybacks off the ABS system to limit the inside tires.

Probably spend more time getting it on and off the trailer, I do seem to remember that BoostedGT had a smart trailer choice a few years back by buying a trailer that was bagged and laid frame at the push of a key fob button, which would allow him to get his Mustang on a trailer without ramps. That way he could put it…

That is 100% not what power and torque look like plotted together on the same graph. It’s hand drawn. I’m an automotive engineer and have looked at way too many power/torque vs. time graphs.

I think you might be going in the wrong direction. 909 would be about 757HP at the wheels, give or take. 11.21 minutes to empty the tank at WOT? 

There would be a perverse sort of satisfaction knowing that there’s a car out there with Veyron-approaching power that is full of parts-been crap from a Chrysler 200.

That’s not the Chrysler way! Or the Fiat way! And when the Chinese buy them out of bankruptcy in a few years, it won’t be their way either.

No, they got 4 people to cut up a Lexus RX and a Porsche Cayenne and stick some of the pieces together. Maybe they used different model years of RX and Cayenne, too, which is why they don’t give a model year.

Oh how incredibly old-fashioned and boring of you. I mean, just because every single one of the states require a VIN for registration, and just because the VIN contains a model number, and just because there are laws and such, you want to piss on their oh-so-hip-and-disruptive parade? Jeez, man... ;)

Now, it should be noted that you could gear a riding lawn mower low enough to get a “good” 0-60 time
