Hi[edit]

I prepared this article. I want your help to expand it. It would be nice to add more technical data. With respect, the son of the nomadic warriors, Deliogul 11:35, 12 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This website gives some more details of the car in question: http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?f=23&t=300660 I'd like to know though how fast will it go flat out. No doubt it's faster than a Bugatti Veryon. Also, maybe a picture wouldn't go astray either.

A Problem With Torque[edit]

Does anyone else see an impossibility with this car's torque rating? I was just reading about it in Supercar Magazine and noticed a discrepancy.

12.9 liters is 780 cubic inches... evident, of course. Now, even the MOST highly tuned race car engines dont make more than 1.5 ft/lbs per in³; therefore, even assuming this was tuned as highly as the most highly tuned race engines, it would very, very doubtfully make more than 1200 ft/lbs of torque. 1297 is ludicrous. To be honest, I see the figure approaching 1000 ft/lbs, which is altogether much more realistic.

In fact, after doing a bit of research on the Weineck website at [1], I find that the most powerful engine made by the company produces 1450NM, which is roughly equivalent to 1070 ft/lbs of torque. Im going to make the proper changes after doing more research to be sure... and will add more to this page tomorrow. Gotta love automobiles!

It really does have 1760Nm of torque, the numbers you pointed at are from their regular Cobra's, while the 780 is a limited edition. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.101.13.220 (talk) 08:52, 27 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Will be upgrading this article for "practice" before moving onto others, hopefully bringing it to a higher standard, and adding references for all material. —Preceding unsigned comment added by PbZep (talk • contribs) 05:47, 8 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
