zero to 60 in 2.1

An Indiana businessman and a race car-driving chauffeur have built what they and the World Record Academy call the world's fastest street-legal car, a 1,600-horsepower beast that does zero to sixty in just 2.1 seconds. .... (http://blog.wired.com/cars/2009/02/new-zero-to-60.html)

It will be interesting to see what the car will do with a good clutch.

What did he say... 0-100 in 6.7 seconds? That's not even close to a WR. Give me a break. 0-60 in 3.4 with a toasted clutch... that doesn't prove anything. My Vette is faster than that.

Granted the _potential_ is there, but as they are finding out (everyone on this site could have told them this), its a lot harder to get power through the driveline (clutch/converter issues) and then to the pavement (tire compound issues) than just creating 2000hp and slapping it down.

Neat concept. Hope they get it all worked out... its expensive enough.
