A Formula 1 race car vs a street production 1991 Ferrari F40 with a top speed of 201 MPH. gee yea i wonder who would win :\

i cant believe the guy who drove the car was even shocked. what did he think was gonna happen!?

i can disagree, definately not worth reposting.

here's something not yet posted here, the FXX..

in case you missed it, the F40 was considered as close to a street F1 car as you could get when it was created. to this day it's still considered one of the closest. this was the reason they did this video.

that's the point of the video. that and to show you how a street car would fare against an F1 car. jesus christ what the f*ck is with people nowadays? does everyone have a stick up their ***? it's a cool video, why the hell can't people just leave it at that?


and the fxx. you think it would be any closer? whether they used the FXX or the F40, it wouldn't matter. the F1 car would stomp it. 0-100 in 3.5 seconds, top speeds over 230mph, and over 4+ G's turning.


it's getting to the point where you can't post a f*cking thing on this site anymore without someone b*tching about it or pissing on the thread in some way. i for one am tired of it, and that ****'s gonna stop. grow the f*ck up.

yeah, when it was created back in 1991, about 14 years ago. if that twin turbo v8 still considered the 'closest' to a street f1 car you can get, im going to laugh.

"that's the point of the video. that and to show you how a street car would fare against an F1 car. jesus christ what the f*ck is with people nowadays? does everyone have a stick up their ***? it's a cool video, why the hell can't people just leave it at that?"

we know how a street car would compare to a formula 1 race car. it would get raped. and if you want to talk about having a stick up your ***, why we start with your utter disgust and hatred with all car owners from certain companies, or maybe your child like ability to create fights by way of flame. it was a cool video. and like i said, that car MAY have been good at one point, but the f40 was created WITH the 'ability' to be taken to the track and race competitively, it wasnt "MADE" to
be a top performer. it was simply a step up from an older model GTO .

so why don't ya grow up yourself, mr moderator.

well I gave you a warning, and us moderators are tired of the bullshit. you wanted to continue it, then fine. you can have a day of banning to think about it.


us moderators are tired of the bullshit, and tired of people making stupid *** comments in threads that were intended to simply be "fun" or show off something cool or interesting.

and if you want to b*tch go ahead and complain. I'm not alone on this. we're tired of the immature bullsh*t.

i'm closing this thread, and I'm going to repost the video. I expect that if people want to comment and say yeah it was cool, or nah i didn't like it, so be it. you wanna post with some big macho attitude, then you can find your way to the door.

1. i said it's still considered one of the "closer" cars to an F1 car today. not the closest. learn to read.


2. no not everyone knows exactly how fast an F1 car really is. i have never seen a straight comparison to a street car til i saw this video. my guess is there are probably quite a few who are the same.
