First real test drive of the scc ultimate aero tt
 

My favorite current supercar testdrive by Business Week magazine
I am very impressed that a such a small company could build such a impressive car
:-):thumbup:

Is one of my favorite 2,thanks for the vid,the SSC is awesome.

Well - they needed a 2 mile straight road to go 256mph.. lets see how slow it goes on a banked oval ;)

A oval creates to much friction to reach a high speed.
On the other a oval speed run would be cool
:-):thumbup:

It's sure is kick ass.
And the company is very small.
How cool would be to get aero testest by topgear and than jc has admit it's just as good as the veyron.
:-):twisted:

just imagine!:laugh:

:eek:You guys really like this car??? Compare this car with Veyron..OMG! Sorry but this car is a piece off trash,ugly,bad engineered,etc.

With JC this car goes direct to hell,Veyron to heaven.

is the 0-60 and 1/4mile time estimated or real life tested?

I like hell more then heaven

real live tested by them selve

All i have to say, this car is fukin impressive! Like the looks as well.

The only flaw i noticed so far is the Cd ~ 0.357? Isn't that great. Why wouldn't they make it lower? That'd helped by alot at such speeds. Nonetheless, amazing project! I'm really interested to see it's best shot at reaching top possible speed and a couple of hot laps on the 'ring!

Oh, i just found out it was mentioned in the Top Gear news where Clarkson bashed it his usual anti-american way! :D

Here, in case someone missed:

That is some good publicty for scc
And they should let make jc eat his cubic hair if the ride of the aero is as good as the veyron.
I think the aero pack is just about perfect for the car no need for lower the cd figure.

Ok:?:It looks way better than the stupid Veyron,is faster,less expensive,the V8 sounds better,do you think that a bad engineered car will hit 256 mph, and thats without the stupid V16 with 4 turbos with a VW shape,and why are you hating,is a small company but look at the numbers 0-60 mph:2.78 seconds1/4 Mile:9.90 seconds at 144 mphTop Speed:257.41 MPH / Official Average: 256.15 MPHSkidpad:1.05 g0-100mph-0:11.6660mph-0 (braking):103 feet

This hardcore pure drivers car rc45's idea of a supercar.
:-):thumbup::-P

The drag coefficient is 0.357??? That seems really high when compared to many less sleek looking cars. Then again, I think many manufacturers nowadays aren't particularily honest about the CD as it's not something that is easily tested like 0-60 times.
