Rotary Supercars promises to beat Veyron Super Sport

Claimed top speed of 450+ km/h

"Rotary Supercars has announced one of their upcoming models will be offered with an eight-rotor rotary engine that develops 2,840 PS (2089 kW / 2801 hp) and 2,580 lb-ft (3,494 Nm) of torque.

This will supposedly enable the car to accelerate from 0-100 km/h in less than one second (Top Fuel dragster territory) and hit a top speed in excess of 450 km/h (279 mph). If these figures pan out, the model would trounce the Bugatti Veyron Super Sport and claim a new world speed record for a production vehicle if it indeed achieves that status.

Previously, Rotary Supercars announced their Predator GT with a four-rotor Wankel engine - based on the Mazda 13B MSP - would develop up to 1,200 PS (883 kW / 1184 hp) and a second model called the VelociRaptor was also in construction. We're taking everything with a grain of salt, but the company has plans to unveil their first model at Top Marques Monaco 2012."

Hmmm Rotary... You'll run out of fuel before you hit the top speed.

That's cool. I am making a 3000 hp Supercar that will go 300 mph. I don't have details, or a picture. Consider this the press release.

3494 Nm of torque? WOW. An ambitious project I must say.

0-60mph in less than one second with 2,800 HP?

Maybe if it's running a Tumbler rear end, except with wrinkle wall drag slicks!
