Worlds fastest ferrari-Again
I remember this car from the early nintes Road&track cover.
Back then they yanked the ferrari V8 and stuck a twin turbo chevy in with an adapter plate and broke 204 mph on the roads outside dallas. Now they're at bonneville with a big block -probably aluminum motor |

The 84-and 85 GTO are -might be the most beautiful sports cars ever made IMHO.

I quote your picture again because it's worth seeing twice! Up 'till mid nineties Ferrari's were stunning (even the crazy Testarossa); now not so much.

I was under the impression that once you get into the 250mph range, 2 driven wheels are not enough traction to overcome the drag force (hence the AWD veyron...)
I do respect an 8.8L big block with 2 turbos that holds together long enough for a top speed run. At 2000hp thats 227hp/liter - thats not unheard of but nor is it like they are just using displacement to make power. cool motor. -John

![]() Am I the only one who only likes the Testarossa? I think it is because I grew up deathly in love with the Lamborghini Countach.

I love the Testarossa, specifically the 512TR. It does unfortunately scream late 1980s, but not necessarily in a bad way.
