Top 7 Cars that MASTERED Air Resistance
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
The faster you drive the more will air try to push you back.
But you already know that. I mean, who here hasn’t put their hand out the window of a moving car?
What you perhaps don’t know, is all the clever ways cars use to get around that problem.
Hey guys, Stype here with a list of 7 Cars that Mastered the Air.

@@TopCarsTV Same deal with the GMA T.50, it was designed by a company that is engineering first, designer second. The McLaren F1 wasn't just engineered and designed by Gordon Murray but also designed by Peter Stevens - who was also redesigning the Lotus Esprit and designed a bunch of MG cars at the time. He saw the Murray design of the F1 through sketches and thought it was too raw and technical to be pretty and presentable, so he redesigned the outside of the car to make it prettier.

I think it just needed to be a little faster. It was sold as being super fast in a straight line but that's it. Other types of performance weren't even really talked about. Also 250mph makes this car the 10th or 15th fastest road car ever, which isn't a good marketing headline. If it was the first car to break 300mph, its unique shape would've been remembered forever, but now it's kinda forgotten

The McLaren Speedtail is slower than an “equally powerful” Bugatti Veyron for this reason: The speedtail only has around an 800hp engine. The electric motor in the car adds the extra 200hp, but only for short bursts during acceleration. The high voltage battery will be depleted long before the speedtail reaches 250mph, so by the time the car reaches that speed it’s only producing around 800hp, not the full 1000hp.

Hybrids are good for the track, not for top-speed run If they used a 1000hp pure IC engine, it would have broke records like it's predecessor, the legendary F1

The new Ford GT is aerodynamic enough to be featured in this video, but what about the old one? It also looks quite aerodynamic-y, right? (Except for the big-ish vents behind the doors, obviously)
Zenvo TSR S with the wing that tilts from left to right like it's broken should be on the list.

Sorry but no. The Speedtail is already reportedly quite unstable at its top speed. It would need extensive bodywork upgrades to reach 300mph without being a tumbling fire ball. The Bugatti Super Sport and Jesko Absolut show that rather nicely. And even the Bugatti, the only car to have reached 300mph was reportedly rather unsettled at such speed, and it's exceptionally wide and heavy, giving it inherently more stability.

Ooooh snap New vid!
During the 60's or the 70's a small racecar participated in Le Mans. It was so aerodynamic (and light) that its engineers had to add wings to ensure stability in the Mulsanne straight (to avoid the car to take off). Its Cd was about 0.18 (officially under 0.20 but nobody knows, some people claim it's at 0.16)

the valkyrie is GORGEOUS
1. The McLaren Speedtail. This design was originally used for the Oldsmobile Aerotech. 2. GMA T.50. This is a Modern version of an older car, and the only one of two from this Company that I don't think is Butt-Ugly. 3. A & M Valkyrie. AN all original design. 4. 69 Charger, Really. all this is is a box with rounded of corners. GM Products had all started doing this in '61. 5. Melted Cheese started being a design at the beginning of the Nineties, this started production in 1999. 6. McLaren Elva. This is a cheap bad copy of the Porsche 918. And that design is based off of the 911, which was first used in the early Sixties. 7. Number 1 Porsche. Well, you got two right.
After the first 2 beauties the jarring sight of the Valkyrie reminded me as a child at the cinema seeing the stormtroopers in Star Wars.
Hallelujah. Style is not dead.
I feel the Aventador SVJ and Senna deserve a mention
I think the infinity emerg-e mastered aerodynamics the best! It is also looking quite cool i guess.
I though I would see the Alfa Romeo BAT series... Also I would mention the Opel Calibra, because Opel produced a nearly prototype efficient car with 4 comfortable seats, fuel economy and sport performance for an average budget. Just incredible! Some other I could remember: Chrysler Airflow, Alfa Romeo Aerodinamica (1917), Hispano Suiza Dubonet...
this guy has the balls to call the valkyrie ugly apart from the egg headlights it is beautiful
I recall reading somewhere that the Speedtail has a lower top speed than the Veyron because of the gearing... It accelerates significantly harder, so that's what they say they were going for. But I get the distinct impression that the main reason they didn't give it some taller gears was because VW won't share Ehra Lessein with anyone else and there's not really anywhere else in the world where you can really wind them all the way out safely. The F1 was the last time VW is sharing, which isn't very sporting.

They could've added one final, super looong gear to use the potential of that streamlined body. And as for Ehra Lessein, just go to Nevada where Koenigsegg tests their top speeds.
