From what I have read it is the Barabus TKR, made of CF completely (body and chassis) and is running a 6ltr twin turbo V8 which is churning out 1005hp

Supposed 0-60 of 1.67 sec and a top end of nearing 270mph

When will they stop????

[rotoryboy]

Oh, thats a good looking motor

[rotoryboy]

And far better than the Bugatti when it has this paint job. All I can say is WHY?

fook me i saw one of those drive past me up in london about 6 months ago.... it looked mean as **** i was like WTF is that??????

it sounded awesome too...

It had what looked like corvette rear lights, i thought it was just a rather expensive bodykit....

Pink please with funny little polka/ leapard spots on it too!

think the bristol fighter has won with a silly amount of bhp.

If someone can explain to me how that so-called production car can get an alleged 1005HP down on the road through rear wheels only giving a 0-60 time of less than 2 secs when not only can F1 cars which weigh 650kg and have all the trick traction control that was ever invented not manage that, nor can the extremely high on traction due to being approximately 2tons, with 4wheel drive through the larget tyres known to man Veyron manage it.

Utter bull!

Also, I'd like to see that engine put out it's claimed 1005HP reliably without exploding, overheating, munching the gearbox or annhiliating the driveshafts. Twaddle.

Finally, I think it looks like a TVR reject.

The Pink Bug is ghastly though, I hope that's a photoshop job!

You know, Jay Leno has a road car with 2000 BHP, now that would be fun off the lights, RWD, wonder when the wheelspin would stop... (sorry officer, I blinked my eye a bit too hard, and accidentally feathered the throttle........)

Is that what I think it is? (See attached image)

The TKR is said to have been in development for the last 10 years.

That's a poor excuse.

the red round thing????-a dizzy
or u mean the pipe going from left to right

[dan_b]

What do you think that is? I think it's a Lego engine.

[4WheelDrifter]

Yeah. A distributor. When did they design this thing? The '80s?
