What happens When You Drive a Car 300mph?

#shorts #bugatti #bugattichiron
What it’s like to drive 300 miles per hour, from Andy Wallace, the guy who did it. At 147 pounds and average height, the mild-mannered, fifty-something Brit could have come straight from central casting for the term “nondescript.” But he’s anything but normal: Wallace has driven and raced high-performance sports cars since 1988, and he’s won more than 25 international competitions, including all four of the big ones: the 24 Hours of Le Mans, 24 Hours of Daytona, 12 Hours of Sebring and Petite Le Mans 1,000-Mile race.
After a year of preparations in secret, weeks at the test track, and an intensive four days at Ehra-Lessien touching 299 mph, but unable to break the 300 mph barrier, Wallace finally hit 304.77 mph on one last, record-setting lap. The 12-mile track is a three-sided layout that uses banked corners, so he got up to speed on one of the long, back straight stretches.

"What happens when you drive 300mph?" You're closer to meeting your maker!😅

[@robster7787]

What sucks is that it’s pretty rare to have perfect conditions to have the car achieve 300 mph. You’re almost never going to utilize that speed in a non-controlled environment. Secondly, once that 300 mph run is done, the car goes straight to the shop for breakdown and maintenance. How do I know? It’s exactly what we did when one showed up to one of our airstrips. Almost immediately after the demonstration , it was loaded onto a plane and flew off to France.

[@albertoj.mollinedo4116]

That car is a gimmick, move VW parts than a GTI

[@jsjones418]

There is a 2006 Ford gt that has a record of 304 mph but doesn't have the dramatic story of this one lol

Ford GT did 310 mph and one 2000 HP Ford gt hit 300 mph in just 1 mile While it took 5 miles for Bugatti 😂

[@twentieth_r]

I can tell you right now, it does not feel like that. If you want to know what 300mph feels like, get on a plane. An A380 has a thrust take off of 280,000lb. If you were to convert that to horsepower - using a typical equation (kg.m^2/s^2 or for simple terms... power = thrust x velocity) it's the equivalent of 275,000bhp. An A380 weighs 277,000kg, which means it has a road going power to weight ratio of 992hp/ton, or 0.496hp/lb... I use an A380 as an example, because the Chiron that recorded the 300mph run, has a power to weight ratio of 0.362 hp/lb. The only difference with the A380 and a Chiron, is that the Chiron is doing 300mph on the ground, which is resistance feedback heavy, wobbly wheel, fast moving objects. The feelings he describes are not because of speed's impact on your body, it's because it's too fast for him to process. And we all process differently. I've personally been 220mph, and after 15 seconds, it feels like you're doing 65 on the highway, minus the more aggressive road feedback.

[@jamesdamron2065]

Not the same because of scale size of the airplane!!! Lmfao but I get what your trying to say

[@z32ghost]

Yea thats what i always tell ppl about the a380 992hpton +277 k then u carry the nine round down to the flux capacitor and wammo u get that data...😂😂
