Jaguar XK-RS (X100) Racing Concept 2004

[RandomCarGuy17]

I remember seeing this in a car book I looked at when I was little. It still has the same impression on me now as it did then; a Jaguar XKR with more insanity. It's also sort of race car based.

Specs:
Engine - Supercharged, 5.0L V8
Power - 550 hp (405 kw)
Torque - 500 ft-lbs (678 nm)
0 to 60 - 3.9 Seconds
Top Speed - 200 mph
Weight - 1,451 kg

How much does it weigh?

I don't know, the weight was never listed.

With all that carbon fiber, and the fact they didn't even include a dash, I'd guess no more than 1,300 kg.

Nope ... 1451 kg

Nope ... 1451 kg

How? Did they put a boulder in the boot or something? I guess it's still light(ish) weight, considering it's based on a luxurious car. The Lister Storm Race GT2 race car weighs 1,400 kg. And that's a true race car.
Still a nice Jaguar, though. Hope to see it in GT6.

The XK8 convertible weights 1750 kg ... so this one is 299 kg lighter.

Not bad.

No big surprise, a 5 litre Jag V8 was always going to be heavy.
