Restricted to 340MPH though. Bloody pussies.

Cheap! I think I'll have two at that price.

Oh they finally made a single prototype? I'd only seen mockups until now, or maybe that one is still a mockup.

I have to wonder whether they are a serious outfit or just a bunch of blue-sky dreamers who have caught the public eye.

Judging by their appalling website they may be the latter:
"INSPIRIT NATIONAL ECONOMY AND GLOBAL CONSTRUCTION INITIATIVES. INCREASE PROFITS DERIVED FROM OIL UP TO TENFOLD. SAVE THE NATURE AND ITS RESOURCES."

You'd be better to buy my Busa, Turbo and nos it yourself. At least then you would still be able to lean in to a sharp turn.

Nice in theory... and I don't believe the claims. Where can you do 34omph?
Though people always used to ask me where you can do 300Kph and I know of a few places. I assume it comes with am Ejector seat for that sorta money.
Those bobsleds they have in the winter olympics? Terrifying at less than 1/2 that speed. No training wheels but. I'll pass.

Coming into Omarama & just short of Kurow.
300 on the clock! Modified ZZ-R1100. Well they said it'd do 290 outta the crate!

I'd hit it for sure, always room for another crazy toy in the garage :yes:

(well, there's not, but I can always build another garage :))

Are there any tyres on the market that can cope with 340mph on a road surface???

I don't think so.
