Video of the Week: 1045 BHP/ton of Pure Pwnage

Kasey Kagawa | June 10, 2007

Post by Kasey Kagawa

Watch the video, and prepare for your paradigm to be shifted. 575 HP at 10.5k RPM, 310 ft-lbs of torque at 9000 RPM from a 3.5L V8 gives it a world-record horsepower to weight ratio of 1045 BHP per ton, more than any other road car. 0-60 MPH in less than 2.5 seconds, 0-100 in less than five, and 100-0 in 3.5 seconds. The only other cars that even approach this kind of performance are Formula 1 cars, and the Caparo T1 has just about as much interior space, just enough for two passengers. Prices start at £190,000. Anyone care to go in on a Dubspeed timeshare T1? $100 gets you 30 minutes once a year.
