I agree. He actually seems to be fairly intellectual. Only someone who’s entirely liberal about everything (so long as it fits them at that day and that hour) would say such a stupid thing.

Look at this and try telling me that he isn’t actually fundamentally intelligent?

Thanks. I like it too. It’ll be British Racing green with carbon accents, and a quilted coffee leather interior and anthracite watanabe wheels.

Similar to this color leather:

Then you’ll hate what he has planned for the future - a road going version of his design inspired by the D-Type. I can’t post pictures of the build, but I can post a design sketch I’ve done based off of his moulds so far:

Meanwhile, I’m just here...

Exposed.

And this is the car that tried to be even crazier than the original Koenigsegg while still trying to retain some of its design cues:

Very good points, but I don’t think combustible ‘fuel’ (whatever that might be) would run out in my lifetime.

However, that being said, I agree on the Hazmat suit theory and therefore would apply the armor to the outside of the suit. Excellent observation.

You must not be a fan of the D-Type then, since that’s what the design was VERY closely inspired by:

You can find medium to large sized industrial grade gas turbines in any industrial district. The knowledge to apply it to a mechanism that can make the car run is fairly simply - all you need is a way to connect the high speed shaft to the driveline. Otherwise, you could just find a way to push the discharged air into…

It’s a Tommy Kaira Roadster converted to single seater, at least according to my friend anyways.

This is a design I can get behind.

Okay but why isn’t it prettier?

You’re right, they need a liquid with combustible properties in order to run.

It was a joke. Clearly I wouldn’t run my car on my adversaries blood - I’d run it on everything from alcohol to cologne.

First things first, if we run out of gas, I’m going full industrial grade Turbine swap, a la Chrysler Turbine, so that it can run on almost any liquid to maintain power.

Second of all, I’m going to find a way to incorporate a KERS style energy system into my car, so that I can store the energy elsewhere in the car…

I see more of this:

When you compare it to a typical car from 1952, you can see how well its lines have aged:

Dude they kicked ass. Seriously, the fact that they aren’t on this list hurts me right in the feels, and I’m not even American.

The mere fact that Briggs Cunningham’s race team wasn’t on this list is atrocious. His C4RK Le Mans racer is still a stunner til this day. See attached.


This car is from 1952.
