magley64 Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 http://autos.yahoo.com/news/koenigsegg-s-horizontal-roller-coaster.htmlThe Koenigsegg Agera R, built by an extraordinary man named Christian von Koenigsegg, in Angelholm, Sweden, last year laid waste to a bunch of Guinness production-car records, among them: zero to 186 miles per hour and back to zero in 21.19 seconds. The very car I'm driving, in fact. And it is, it feels like, a horizontal roller coaster: At rest, the Agera R always seems poised in space, then hit the gas, over the top, and straight down, bang, bang, bang go the gears. A plunging vertigo takes over, a forward free-fall. The momentum builds in inexorable squares of mass and you scream your face off. Welcome to Six Flags Over Sweden.

BDBGoalie Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 Too bad it sounds like they just built it for acceleration and not handling. Still sounds like a monster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jester3681 Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 I remember when the Ultima GT broke the 0-100-0 record and did it under 10 seconds. This is ridiculous... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
