You will need a spare 1M dollars and an airplane runway.

You can't just leave that there without a video or a more in depth explanation... That's just cruel

Compared to LaFerrari and P1, the 918 is slow and not in the same league. Still a cool car though.

Are you sure about that? Any backup? I call BS.

so the p1 does 0-60 in less than 2.2 seconds, 1/4 mile in less than 9.8 and nurburgring in less than 6:57?

cool, i guess i must have missed all that.

Gonna have to see some data that validates that. FWIW, McLaren has yet to provide any documentation that the P1 can break the 7:00 barrier at the Ring as they clamed. The 918 did 6:57....

918 faster 0-100 and then both LaFerrari and P1 are quicker. P1 likely could not last on full Ring run with battery boost while LaFerrari will come out with a time that is well below 6:57.

lots of media stuff, including chris harris, talking about the straightline speed of these 3 cars. IIRC the F car was like 3sec faster to 180 than the P.
