Faster than the original Veyron, but slower than the SSC Ultimate Aero TT, and the Veyron SuperSport. All this results in a top speed of around 254 mph. Never fear, as that’d be handled by what I’d assume to be Carbon Ceramics, with a 380mm front diameter, and a 350mm rear diameter, along with 6-piston calipers(All round, possibly), and ABS too. Its all well and good having that kind of power, but eventually you’ll need to stop. Weight is also distributed 48:52, front and back respectively, which seems typical enough. The whole car itself now weighs something like 1450 kilos(Fully-loaded, I think). Otherwise, the Wheelbase is a whole Foot longer than usual, and the roofline has dropped some 12 centimetres. The body itself? Its made of Carbon-Kevlar, and is stretched over spaceframe tubing. So, all you (manic) purists can sit right back down now, since it isn’t just rearranged for funzies. You’d think that the mentalists at 9ff would have left the engine in the back, but Oh no, they’ve placed in in the middle now, much like a 911 GT1 would have its engine placed, too. All that colossal energetic force is then transmitted to the soon-to-be-tortured rear 325/30 19-inch Michelin Pilot Sport Cup tyres via a GT2 gearbox (fitted upside down) with race-car internals and a limited-slip diff. The valve-train has been beefed up, new camshafts and forged aluminium cylinder heads have been made in-house and the liquid-cooled turbochargers are fitted with what are really the finest bearings known to man. The block has been reinforced and internally polished, the forged pistons have a strengthening structure at their bases and the conrods are titanium. A huge amount of strengthening work has gone into the engine. But it isn’t just a quick ‘Turbos-To-Maximum-Pressure’ kind of tune, since it goes much, much deeper than that. In its ‘normal’ GT9-spec, the 4.0 Flat-Six outputs, in Stage 1 tune, 738 bhp, in Stage 2, 987 bhp, and in Stage 3, a massive, 1120 bhp. The engine is heavily modified, Twin-Turbocharged 4.0-Litre Flat-Six that, depending on configuration, produces anything from an already-spine-chilling 987 bhp, to an even more spine-chilling, 1120 bhp.
