the world's fastest street-legal car...

...has 2200hp and obliterates the 1/4-mile in 7.802 seconds...impressive figures non?

if it really means nothing much to you, here's some food for thought to put things into perspective...

1. the bugatti veyron supercar has about 1000hp and costs 850,000 pounds sterling, if i recall correctly (less than half the power output)
2. the mclaren f1 does the 1/4-mile in about 11 seconds (an eternity slower relatively speaking)
3. the 2200hp in question is a 1972 chassis! (damn that's the same age as me...shite!)
   

meet RED VICTOR ONE...a 35 year old vauxhall victor...a car with the aerodynamic efficiency of the proverbial brick and yet with enough power to see off 2 veyrons...

see the vid below...all i can say is HOLY SHEEEET!!!
