SSC Ultimate Aero 2009 1,287HP rocks!

One of the fastest car in the world, you should know SSC Ultimate Aero.I like the way SSC Ultimate Aero designed and built in an aerodynamically way.Just take a peek on this new 2009 SSC Ultimate Aero.Can this beat Bugatti Veyron,Jaguar,Porsche,or Ferrari?Well, they all good in certain ways right?

The new Ultimate Aero supercar broke the Guinness-verified top speed world record. This is an amazing feat - but if you think that it is going to sit back and relax than you’re wrong. It’s journey has just begun.

SSC has revamped this already incredible supercar and if you can believe it - they have made it even more powerful.

Now it has more power, speed, and better aerodynamics than before. The 2008 model was able to push out an amazing 1,183 horsepower - but that has been increased to 1,287 thanks to a brand new one-piece billet aluminum engine block. This engine also helps to improve upon the structural integrity and the oiling capabilities.

It has also been given a new front fascia with a new center grille opening that helpt to push all of this horsepower through the air. The carbon fiber louvers also help to push 20% more air through to the radiators. These aerodynamics upgrades together with the higher power give this supercar the ability to reach a top speed of 270 mph! Is that actually possible?

Of course if you are going to enjoy more power you have to do it inluxury

The interior has also been given a makeover with new air vents, gauge cluster, door sills, and carbon fiber trim added to the dash.

The new center console now features an Azentek PC Infotainment system that works to process the supercar’s diagnostic system on board. We now hope that that SSC will work to beat out its old record, and set a new one that will have us… once again…. amazed!

Catching Up With The Fastest Car

Shelby super cars, sure kick Veyron ass. I think i had already post about this tremendous and awsome car, an American firm Shelby Super Cars. They name it, Ultimate Aero TT which describe it performance. It sure suit well as the fastest car ever built.

It looks like there is a new challenger to the Veyron’s throne as the fastest production car in the world. American firm Shelby Super Cars which, by the way, is not related to Carroll Shelby is aiming to break the speed record set by the Veyron with the Ultimate Aero TT. As can be expected, if you set a speed record, you have to expect that the competition will be gunning for that record.

If you are looking for a great looking car, then the Bugatti Veyron and the Ultimate Aero TT will not disappoint you. Not only these cars look good but they also pack a mean punch under their hood or wherever they stow their engines.

The Ultimate Aero TT, according to its manufacturer, has these specifications regarding the ultra-fast Ultimate Aero. I found these at the manufacturer’s site and I just chose some to let you have a sample of what this American supercar has in store for the Veyron.

Engine:

• Type: Aluminum Block and Heads (V-8)
• Displacement: 387.2 cu.in.
• Horsepower: 1183 bhp at 6950 rpm
• Torque: 1094 lb./ft. at 6150 rpm
• Redline: 7200 rpm

Dynamics:

• Coefficient of drag (Cd): 0.357
• Frontal Area: 19.0 square feet
• Belly pan: Complete flat belly pan with rear Venturi tunnels

Record-Breaking Times:

• 0 to 60 mph: 2.78 seconds
• 1/4 mile: 9.90 seconds at 144 mph
• Skidpad: 1.05 g
• 0 to 100 mph to 0: 11.66
• 60 mph to 0 (braking): 103 feet

If you want the complete specs of this challenger to the Veyron’s land supremacy, you can visit http://www.sscautos.com/specifications.php.

Anyway, the manufacturer of this supercar reported that while testing the car in Nevada, they were able to note 388 kilometers per hour. While it is still far from Veyron’s 407 miles per hour land speed record, SSC pointed out that the throttle of the Ultimate Aero was set to only 71 percent. After clocking that time in, a freak snowstorm prevented the team from testing the Aero.

While apparently disappointed with Mother Nature’s apparent intervention on the behalf of the Veyron, SSC’s marketing director Junus Khan is still confident that the Ultimate Aero can dethrone the reigning and defending fastest production car, the Bugatti Veyron.

Aside from the Ultimate Aero, it seems that the woodworks are crawling with cars looking to unseat the Veyron. The Melling Hellcat, a supercar designed by engine expert Al Melling is also looking to break the Veyron’s record. The Bristol Fighter T is also a car looking for its spot in the record books and its aiming for the Veyron’s record.

Supercars SSC Ultimate Aero TT

SSC Ultimate Aero TT

The engine in the base Aero model is same as the previous year, but the Ultimate Aero has a 6.35-litre (387.2 cu. in.) engine, rated at 1,183 bhp (882 kW) @ 6950 rpm and 1,094 lb·ft (1,483 N·m) torque @ 6150 rpm, and the supercharger is replaced by a twin turbocharger with cabin adjustable boost pressure. The car is designed to use 91-octane gasoline.^[6] The 6-speed transmission is readjusted to increase the theoretical top speed to 273.75 mph (437 km/h) @ 7200 rpm, however whether the vehicle is able to reach this speed is highly questionable and has never been tested.

Wheels on the base model are sized 18-inch at the front and 19-inch at the rear, while the Ultimate Aero TT has wheels an inch larger at each end.

The coefficients of drag are 0.261 and 0.237 for base and ultimate models respectively.^{[citation needed]}

The 2007 models are heavier, with the base model weighing 2850 lb, and Ultimate version 2750 lb. Unlike the previous year, base models have a navigation system, 10-speaker audio/CD/DVD system, video/DVD screen, back-up camera, air-conditioning, and trunk space as standard equipment. These come optional on the Ultimate.

The first production 2007 Ultimate Aero TT car was sold on eBay for US $431,100. Later cars are expected to cost US $485,000.^[7] Only 24 Ultimate Aero TT's are going to be produced from 2006-2007. The Ultimate Aero TT made its international debut on the International Show Circuit in November 2006, culminating with the world record top-speed competition held in Wolfsburg, Germany in May 2007.

American-built mid-engine sports car by Shelby Super Cars. Its higher-performance limited production version, the SSC Ultimate Aero TT,^[1] is currently the fastest production car in the world, with a highest recorded speed of 413 km/h (257 mph).^[2] This speed was reportedly achieved during tests on September 13, 2007 in West Richland, Washington, United States and verified by Guinness World Records on October 9, 2007.^[3] The Ultimate Aero's acceleration rate is 0-60 mph in 2.78 seconds, slightly more than that of former top-speed record holder the Bugatti Veyron. The Aero and the Shelby Super Cars company are the brainchildren of Jerod Shelby, who spent over seven years designing the car. Only twenty-five Aeros are slated to be produced^{[citation needed]} and it is unclear how many will be the Ultimate model.^{[citation needed]} The basic Aero model is priced from $239,000, while, as of 2007, the Ultimate Aero is likely to cost well over $650,000.

SSC tested the top speed capability of the Ultimate Aero TT on March 22, 2007. The original test was scheduled for March 21, 2007 but was called off due to bad weather conditions. SSC closed down a 12-mile (19 km) stretch of U.S. Route 93 in Nevada for the event. Their goal was to replace the Bugatti Veyron as the fastest production car ever produced, which at the time could achieve 254.3 mph. Simulation and testing at NASA's Virginia facility had shown that the Ultimate Aero TT should be capable of approximately 273 mph (439 km/h).^[8] The March 22nd attempt failed to break the record, apparently due to sub-optimal conditions^{[citation needed]}. Test driver Rick Doria reported "wheel-spin" at speeds above 190 mph (306 km/h).^[9] Despite the failure of the attempt, the car still reached 242 mph (390 km/h)

SSC announced they had broken the speed record for the world's fastest production car with 256.15 mph (412.23 km/h) in West Richland, WA on September 13, 2007. The reported record speed came from an average of two runs in opposite directions, in accordance with Guinness Book of World Records rules. The first run clocked 257.41 mph (414.26 km/h) and the return trip 254.88 mph (410.19 km/h), with the average beating the Bugatti Veyron's speed by 2.35 mph (3.78 km/h). The results of this test, verified by Guinness World Records on October 9, 2007, gave the SSC Ultimate Aero the title of world's fastest production car.[2] [source]
