Fuck, I dont even need to watch it, just have it on repeat and listen to the Audio. Is it summer yet? http://videos.streetfire.net/video/1000-hp-Tacoma-at-of_527296.htm?Ref=Newsletter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jelloman4571647545499 Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 ok that thing is reckless almost the entire time. But I like Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draco-REX Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 I don't think that thing has a gear that it can't break the tires loose in. He had some serious balls to drive it on wet tarmac, but then he has to have bigger balls to drive it on dirt where one mistake means a 1000ft drop.

ICEMAN1647545504 Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 Bad ass... That Land Rover at the end almost got dug up... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sturg1647545502 Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 im sure all the straw reinforced with wood is going to stop that thing. bordering insanity Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeitgeist57 Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 That thing looked like a lot to handle. I'm assuming it was running in a 2.0L class? Seems like 1000hp could be otherwise had in a bigger, easier-to-manage powertrain combo... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benner Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 Wow. Did anyone else notice the chunks of rubber flying off as he was braking at the end? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaSSon Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 I think "Tacoma" is applied loosely here... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FourString Posted February 7, 2009 Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 Looked a bit unstable, but I'd still drive it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe the engine choice was due to "Added Lightness" as the entire car weighs in at 1950lbs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex L. Posted February 7, 2009 Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 Power to weight ratio FTW. I'd love to drive that thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Draco-REX Posted February 7, 2009 Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 Ferrari Enzo = 433hp/ton Bugatti Veyron = 481hp/ton Aero SSC = 772hp/ton Pikes Peak Taco = 1026hp/ton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draco-REX Posted February 7, 2009 Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 For shits and giggles: Thrust SSC (Super Sonic Car) = ~9689hp/ton @ 763mph What really turns this into a jaw dropper, is that the Thrust SSC weighs 10.5 Tons! EDIT: Aerodynamic drag is a bitch. For the Thrust SSC to go 3 times the speed of the Veyron, it needs 20 times the power to weight ratio.

SPLN SUX Posted February 7, 2009 Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 Ive seen that Tacoma run up the peak and it wouldve set the sub 10min record a few years ago but it broke down less than 3miles from the peak. Left the door wide open for Suzuki. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
