...Specs for this car sounds like a pure fantasy. W16 motor, 4 liters and 560 horses? One gear, 380kph top whack and sub 3 seconds 0 to 100 kph.
All this in less than 1000 kilos, when Hennessey Venom GT's what, 1200 kilos?
...Hmm.
 
Well, if I wrote a "W" like that I'd go to jail.
I know it's made from two V8s joined in the middle but the angles are weird.
It looks like it has two crankshafts, other than that it could be accused of being a flat-8 with a V8 on top.
I'm far from being a specialist, but that engine should vibrate a lot!
