Red Bull X1 prototype for GT5.

Basically, its a fully designed (albeit entirely digital) prototype at the limits of what is possible with current technology.
Kind of an ultimate car.

545kg
1106kW
714.1Nm
0-60mph: 1.4s
0-200mph: 6.1s
Top speed: 'Over 450kmph'
Max horizontal G's: 8.25


I wish unlimited races were still around...

Like the new racing stripe on your car Graham :)

These new smilies are pretty funny, pity they show up too small when posting to tell what they are (or maybe that's just my bad eyesight? ) *ohwell*

Anyway, put the back Ralliart mudflaps on my car today, they look pretty sweet *happy*. Was a bit of effort to get them on, so not doing the front ones just yet.

I also got a Ralliart windscreen decal off ebay (none of these 65 buck official ones, bugger that! *jaw* . Haha, just wanted to use that smiley.

Pics for my garage when my car is clean... i'm waiting for the shade to come over so i can chamois properly - the heat of the sun is drying it too quick, and black cars = water marks *frusty*. On the plus side, they seem to have done a good job with the paint protection this time. Pity they couldn't get all of the swirl marks out but they improved it from where it was before at least.

If i could afford it i'd have the car resprayed a different colour, that's how much i hate black, lol.

Has mitsubishi started a war with Audi that no one told me about?

I was driving to (and back from) the city today and I happened to be next to two different Audi Q5s (one on each trip). Both times I took of from the lights at a normal pace (we were the front two cars in each instance) and both times I was infront of the audi, only for it to come screaming up next to me. This happened with both a female and male driver and I did nothing to provoke that sort of reaction (no aggressive driving, no revving at the lights or anything stupid like that). I never made eye contact or even looked at the cars at the lights, it was only when they came speeding up next to me that I noticed them.

It was very odd that it happened on the same day. I'm wondering why Q5 drivers feel the need to try and race a lancer? Jealous much?
