Maxximus G-Force: Fastest Street Car on Earth
Saturday, June 27th, 2009
According to the World Record Academy, the Maxximus G-Force is the fastest street car on earth. It currently has three world records, 0-60mph in 2.134 seconds, 0-100mph in 4.541 seconds, and 0-100mph-0 in 8.861 seconds. The Maxximus G-Force is a modified British Ultima GTR which can be purchased as a turn-key car or as a kit to customize as the owner desires.
Currently the car runs a 7.0L Chevy V8 with twin turbochargers pushing the power to 1,600 horsepower. Kirby spent three and a half years re-engineering the Ultima chassis to fit the engine and necessary plumbing for turbos. Several blown clutches led the team away from a traditional manual transmission and instead to a three-speed sequential transmission. The Maxximus G-Force can do 80mph in first gear. Braking is done through six-piston AP Racing calipers and 14 inch cross-drilled discs. The car weights 2,700 pounds and will set back the owner $3 million dollars. It is reported the car has been sold to a buyer in the Middle East.
