super charged x5
 

That's the famous Hans Stuck video driving the V12 X5. :thumbup:

Amazing... The video crapped out on me after about 6 or 8 minutes, but for those of you who do not speak German, here are some of the highlights that I managed to gather (He's also Bavarian with a VERY thick accent. A lot of what he said I could not make out):

- X5 LeMans version
- 12-cylinder engine with more than 700 HP
- Has reached speeds on the straightaway of more than 300 KPH (after which time the car becomes very unstable)
- Has run the "ring" in some 8 minutes... he could probably run it faster, but the weight of the vehicle demands that he start braking (when approaching turns) a lot sooner than he would were he driving a "regular" car

Thanks for sharing. Nice video.

Was anybody else amazed at how flat and neutral the thing handled? It's amazing that the chassis is strong enough to take that much power and put it down :thumbup: .

:thumbup: @t those speeds you must have a death wish!

Truly amazing!!! I love the sound of that V12!!!!! :wow:

Didn't care too much for the wheels, but man oh man, what a vehicle!!!

thanks i didnt know what the guy was saying.....................
but it still so fast

Dont think it is supercharged!I believe its an Evolution of the BMW engine in Maclaren's F1 supercar with 600+ bhp...
