Performance Power Racing's Ford GT - Fastest Standing Mile - 283MPH http://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/...le-580-327.jpg Just thought I'd share. Performance Power Racing's Ford GT just set the new world record. Previous record was 267MPH by of course, another TT GT, but new record destroyed the previous one. Can you guys believe that? 283MPH in one mile? Freakishly fast. No videos that I found yet, but here are 2 articles on guinessworldrecords site. Fastest Standing Mile Performance Power Racing drives through fastest standing mile record at Kennedy Space Center - - - Latest news - Guinness World Records Some images of the GT. http://www.bimmerboost.com/attachmen...0&d=1351310721 http://www.bimmerboost.com/attachmen...9&d=1351310720 http://www.bimmerboost.com/attachmen...8&d=1351310720 http://www.bimmerboost.com/attachmen...6&d=1351310718 http://www.bimmerboost.com/attachmen...5&d=1351310718 Here's a previous video of same car doing 253 2 years ago. Pretty damn impressive. |
Incredible is an understatement. |
What does a veyron ss do speed/time? |
Yeh. I still don't think it hit me. 283MPH is ridiculous as a top speed to begin with, but in a standing mile? That's just scary. I don't think a Veyron SS ever ran in the standing mile. Just that the top speed on a few mile road with a rolling start of around 120mph was 267mph. Interesting thing though, on forgtforum, a guy with a TT GT said a 2012 Veyron came out to the standing mile, and had 3 runs with the best being 201. Even if it wasn't running at it's best, it still gets absolutely destroyed by these TT GT's. |
A standard veyron does 204.4mph |
Where is the video?! Not seeing it anywhere on the net yet... |

Pardon my ignorance but I guess these cars are faster than the UGR gallardos? I'm not too familiar and just curious. Never really heard about these Ford GTs before :) |
It kills me that people still mention to Bugatti when they talk about these standing mile cars. A lot comes into play with a mile car. |
