Very impressed! Excited to see what this can truly do in the 1/4 when the weather is better there! Thank you for sharing!

Shut up Charlie. You trade your Lp640 for an Mp12 and I will kill you. 😄

possibly, I might put the OEM corsa tires on as well... even spinning a little on the street it hits 100MPH in 5.4 seconds.... crazy, anytime your on the throttle you're at 100MPH before you know it...

 

 

As fast as million dollar cars in the 1/2 mile... Ridiculous.

 

Would the car be quicker in sport or comfort mode for suspension?

My 820 whp GTR that ran 9.79@146 (in 45* weather and 900' above seal level) went 0-100 mph in 5.1 with a 1.64 60.

 

The 720S is so damn impressive!

that's moving, I think I can get into the 9.8x, we'll see, I think someone will beat me to it up at ATCO soon.... the car has the power and my first launch at the track was 1.607, that should be enough...

 

the 918 that was racing around down here is in LA and shipping the car back to Dubai, don't know anyone else that would race...

It's funny how the 918 became the acceleration benchmark when everyone was sure it would be outclassed back in 2014. I guess 4.7 seconds to 100 mph and 9.7 quarter miles will do that.

 

Also sort of crazy but I'm pretty sure the 720S may be quicker from 100-200 mph than the 918. I'm sure we'll see a race a some point to find out.

 

I've seen a Vbox read out from a friends 918, from an airstrip outside of Houston this past January that reads pretty similar to Brooks 720S.

 

0-60 mph in 2.3 seconds

0-100 mph in 4.7 seconds

0-120 mph in 6.5 seconds (200 kph in 6.9)

0-186 mph in 18.5 seconds

 

Quarter mile in 9.7 seconds at 147.2 mph

Half mile in 15.2 seconds at 176.1 mph.

 

I don't think the 720S can launch with a 918 but once they're both moving it seems very close.

yea, take out the launch and it might be close, would be interested to see his 60-130 and 100-150 numbers to compare....

To me that means it's anyone's race from from a roll. Do you think you'll put an aftermarket exhaust on at some point?
