My XJR-9 also has 1:1.
 
its pretty easy
just get an LMP and put a giant turbo on it.
 
What is ratio?

Ratio is how one value compare to another.

If you have 500 bhp in a car that weights 1000 kg, you have 0.5 bhp per kg. The power-to-weight ratio is 1:2, because the weight is twice as big as the power.

A ratio of 1:1 is when you have 1 bhp per kg (like, 700 bhp in a car that weighs 700 kg).

It's the same with gears: If you have one gear with a teeth count of 16 and another gear with a teeth count of 24, the gear ratio is 16:24, which can be simplified to 2:3, or more commonly 1:1.5

I think he is trying to say, "Hey! Look! There are other cars that can do this too!"
 
I find this cool. By the way @makina2, welcome to :gtpflag:
 
The Red Bull X2011 has a 3:1 ratio, or 3 times more power (hp) than weight (kg)

Formula 1 cars have about 1.5:1 ratio
