There is also a couple Supras that could lay down the smack. Oh yes and my personal fav Ferrari and Porsche Killer is the Bumble Bee Yellow 1100hp Audi TT. You can't even tell that the car is special until you see the dash with dual tachs and mph gauges. Oh yes that is right twin 550whp engines. AWD so one engine takes car of the front and one for the rear. 0-60 in under 4 seconds and 100 passes faster than it takes you to take a bra off a horney lady.

That's sick dude but the ole man couldn't take you for a drive around the block? Gimmie a break...lol. I can't wait to post pics of my ass in $200K Ferrari's on an actual racetrack in mid Italia.
Yeah it's Wheel Horse power but that in itself is an ambiguous term that I haven't seen in a LONG time. That could be anything, front wheel drive, rear wheel drive and often all wheel drive. You'll often c RWHP ='s Rear wheel horse power which makes sens as RWD is the better tranfer of power in gerneal. BRWHP='s Blown Rear Wheel HP which you'll c from time to time reffering to an NON naturally aspirated boosted car having a turbo or Supercharged. ON rare occasions you'll c the term FDHP='s Front Drive HP or BFDHP....Blown Front Drive HP.
I wanna c pics of that old fart driving that sick Italian Stallione. I gotta convice them to let me drive that thing when I go back home..hehe.

thanks for clearing up whp kwong.
Oh yeah another car which can throw down on the Enzo is the 1100whp Audi TT. AWD with twin 550whp engines. Top speed around 216mph.

You know, I saw a video on some show with the twin engine Audi TT...thing looks like a total beast. The only thing I really wonder is how they got the engines running at the same exact speed when driving.
btw, did anyone see "ride with funkmaster flex" when they showed Wyclef's cars? They took a spin in a Mclaren and you could totally tell it was too much of a car for Wyclef...but man was that car fast.

Yeah kwong the show you probably saw it on was SuperTunerTV with the twins who spent like a whole season building that 1000hp Supra from the ground up.
Yes, I agree with the person who mentioned above that is a lot of power and even more some serious genious to make that happen. I do not think it takes all 1100hp to beat the Enzo but the point was that it takes some serious work to beat that beast.
Kwong, the yellow TT was made in Great Britain to take the top speed record for its class and last time I checked it did hold the record in a very specific category. Anyway, the yellow TT did come state side for awhile specifically in San Jose, CA where I saw it. My Audi was in the shop getting a turbo upgrade and a bunch of other crap and the car was in the other bay and I asked who owned the car. The guy who I asked told me it was his. To get to the point the guy took me for a quick ride up and down the road real quick and I did not even know such a car existed until I got into shotgun and asked why did he have two sets of all the car guages. The guy grinned and told me it had two full race engines fully ported and polished 2.0 liters (original engine is a 1.8 liter with a small K3 turbo). Anyway he took me out a mile and back. The car shoved my ass back in that seat so hard I thought I was on the gravitron at the State Fair. I was like "Oh crap eating Jack In the Box may not have been such a good idea after all." Anyway it was a blast because the car was so fu$king fast and the guy was so nice.
The car had this FMIC (Front Mount Intercooler) setup that was completely custom and it had SMK hoses all over. He also had twin Nitrous shots (75 shot) for each engine that he used just to spool up the turbos faster. Apparently the big ass turbo suffered from some serious ass turbo lag in the beginning. He also had stand alone engine management that obviously completely custom. Right now the car is on a world tour and should be in the next Gumball 3000 race. Basically everything in the car was completely custom and he said he did not honestly know how both engines run so well together but Greddy did the programming as it was there stand alone engine management software which ran the show.
Honestly, the best part about the car was that you could not tell at all that the car could kick the ass of just about anything on the road minus a full on drag car. No flashy chrome rims (also no spinners THANK GOD), outrageous body kits, ground effects lighting, fart can exhaust system, carbon fiber pieces. Just pure unadultered speed and power.
I can be more specific. When I say whp = wheel horsepower more specifically I mean horsepower which can be measured at the crank. Yes, yes, I know drive train loss and a myriad of other variables contribute to sometimes a much smaller number but for the sake of argument 1100whp Audi TT can lay down the smack on the Enzo. The Audi is 50/50 weight distribution with a fully functioning AWD system. Rolling on super sticky 18s with Japan which has a tire selection to die for over there.

IF ya think about it, it's a confusing and inaccurate term as wheel power is just that. It's power that's being put to the wheels and not the crank. Most every manufacturer is known to overstate their power #'s to various extents too so as a car guy, I only care about dyno #'s. When one does dyno a car, I use a conservative 12%-16% power loss @ the crank to figure a relative HP number.
Every company has their "Supercars" and Audi has some sick cars and sick engineers, they aren't winning as much as Ferrari though nor do they have the race Heritage of Ferrari :hammer: This has actually been an unbelieveable year for Ferrari and Euro racing in general.
