when you absolutely gotta have the fastest car in the world,....accept no substitutes. I actually prefer the corvette Z06 more usable horsepower. and it's cheaper, still can't afford it but cheaper, I'll be lucky to afford the new camaro when it comes out in 2009.

I wonder what the fine would be for going 253 in a 65 mph zone,...lol any cops on here that would know?

I'm no cop, but considering you'd be traveling at almost 4 times the speed limit, I'd say you'd have an all expense paid trip to the house of bars...

I wouldn't worry about it since they would never be able to keep up..

No car is faster then the radio though.


Well ok, maybe this car is but it's probably the only one.

But if they did catch you at some point, like Brian said, 4 times the speed limit = 4 times the cost for normal speeding;) Although i dont know how anyone could reach that speed on a 65mph zone.. lol

It won't be long before we see the brushless version of this. :005:

Any of you heard of the Tesla roadster? Now that's technology in an interesting way. Not just over abundance for the sake of over abundance.

I shouldn't get started on this. I'm way too much of a car freak already. :002:

Ok, I just went back and watched that tops speed run video. That's sick. Wow.

Even if he did get cought, if he can afford a car like this, I am sure he can bail himself out of jail.

Sower - What is the Tesla roadster?

The Tesla roadster is a fully electric car that does 0-60 in 4.0 seconds and has a range of 250 miles on a single charge. Looks like a Lotus Elise. Here, check it out:

Pretty sweet, eh?

Ive seen that before! It is very interesting, quick, too!

Now that I watch the video, I think I have seen that car before, I just forgot the name of it.

I think it is pretty sweet. They now have to make one that is capable offroad, and I think they'll be very popular.

Make it RC and it will be even more fun.... RC 1:1 scale electric rock crawling; I like the sound of that. The Tesla has an official website somewhere, but specific details of how it works are not really mentioned- seriously cool car though.

imagine the acceleration in bolth of those cars :D

Yeah I heard of the Tesla a little while ago. It looks pretty good.
You can find it hear www.teslamotors.com
They say it uses Li-ion batteries, I think each cell has a casing, and if one cell is damaged it won't damage the cells around it, apparently.

I don't know exactly what the fine will be. But I do know that someone did ~250mph in a 35mph zone with a Y2K motorcycle (its a bike powered by a Rolls Royce Jet Helicopter Engine) and the speeding ticket was over $10,000.
