    Does anyone know this ?? 1:1 weight/power ratio

    Found these pics on the Norwegian Gate-bil page. It has been discussed on the VW-Audi Club Norwegen forum but no one knows who owns it. It is claimed to have the same power as weight. 700 kilos and 700 bhp........

    Tickets will be released soon! Festival news About Gatebil Every year, Gatebil arranges 5 festivals starting at Vålerbanen in Norway at the end of May and ending at Mantorp Park in Sweden in September.

      It's not very scary, but's it will be dusty and noisy . I suggest some thin but light plastic should be used to prevent that. It's not a open car where you get ventilation from above .

            I dont how how much it weighs but is said to have 1:1 weight/power ratio !!!! I suppose they have some aluminium-plates to cover the holes in the floor hehe. Would be quite dusty driving around without floor. The car will have its "launch" NEXT weekend at Gatebil 2006 at VÃ¥ler outside Elverum in Norway.

              incredible, but as ant rightly points out, it is a shame that the wheels look like they came from Halfrauds.

                  I could survive with such ugly wheels if my car had about 1600 BHP,since my S4 saloon weighs around 1600 kilos

                    Thats gotta be LETHAL

                    Picture the scene......blasting down some wild B roads.........when suddenly you clip a large stone in the road at high speed.....the front wheels launch it like a missile on a journey straight through the invisible floor pan and on a trajectory for your groin

                    or head...or face

                    Apart from that and the wheels though....nice car!!

                          Also it's possible, that they were the only available wheels at the moment to clear the brakes .

                            Fair enough, but you would have thought he would then have them blasted and painted in white, or silver....or even red or pink, just anything but chromed....that's one small step away from spinners and one giant leap away from mankind!

                              Imagine getting tired and going to rest your foot on the floor "oh lost my left leg on the last curve", and if it rains it will get very moist in there, At least a bit of plastic clipped in to keep whats outside out of your Joy department, i got a rabbit stuck between the cats a few years ago as some will remember, i could not imagine flopsy hitting my wedding tackle at 90 MPH
