2012 SSC Ultimate Aero II

The battle for the title of "world's fastest production car" just hot - again. And this time around its two classic David vs. Goliath encounter: the diminutive Shelby Super Cars acquires the power of VW-owned Bugatti. American solo exhibition SSC, made the world take them seriously after the original Ultimate Aero snatched the title from the Veyron with the launch of 256mph, recorded on a four-mile Texas with one-way traffic, which showed dogleg bend, you need to navigate to the "just" 210mph. The man behind the wheel was 71 years old Chuck Bigelow, who had no racing experience and even refused to wear a protective helmet.

Pushing back, Veyron Super Sport came to the ultra-modern, ultra-smooth and wide Ehra VW test track in Lessien, with a professional driver at the wheel, and a crowd of engineers at their disposal. The result was a spectacular 267mph on the special edition of the 1200HP.

Considering all that Bugatti have at their disposal, compared with Jerod Shelby and his team of 16 engineers - who work from a garage behind his house - you begin to understand the magnitude of their achievement. Now, they presented their new creations, 1350HP RWD beast is not yet an official name. For convenience, we shall simply call Aero II.

UPDATE 07/14/2011: Reports that the SSC is in the final stages of implementing their new supercar after the legendary Ultimate Aero, once considered the fastest car on the planet.

Although there was no evidence that the car will have a name - the word is that the SSC is preparing to tease him in front of her debut 2013 - Many people go out and dubbed it as "Ultimate Aero II '.

Exterior Design

Outgoing Ultimate Aero was very general in its appearance. The body, like the rest of the car was designed by company owner Jerod Shelby (no relation to the muscle car legend Carroll Shelby). He recognizes that the need for slippery aerodynamics governed by the final product and being an engineer by profession, the design was not his forte. Enter the American Italian designer Jason Castriota, who at the beginning, reservations about taking on the project. We can not blame him after looking at his impressive resume. He wrote the car for the best in the industry: Ferrari, Pininfarina, Rolls Royce, and Bertone, to name just a few of them. The last thing that his career had to design a car designed for failure for a small company with more hope than money or brains. After visiting the facility and familiarity with the staff and more importantly, their ideals and the car, he took the plunge and created what you see before you.

The result is stunning, especially when you clear the body of work to identify how technically difficult it was to overcome the terrible forces of nature at 200 miles / h +, while packing the necessary mechanical components. It is a great example as a function of assembly to create a harmonious whole. We like black tears form a canopy, which is located at the top of the white exterior, creating a stunning contrast of strength and beauty. The form of the classical and fundamental, and has very low resistance rate. The car has a dihedral wings or stabilizers, which have been borrowed from the aviation field. The term "flying support" could be interpreted as being a bit naughty, but they are actually wings, which help maintain the structure of the vehicle. In this case, they are bits on the side of the SSC Aero II, which feed air to the engine intake - Castriota signature design.

The front looks scary and focused with his low-slung nose and headlights carbon fiber. Looking carefully, you will notice ventilation to carbon brakes and a cohesive front splitter, which generates enough downforce to keep the nose planted at high speed. There is no hood or trunk, or any compromises with this car. Side profile sleek and sexy - there are no door handles or side repeaters, and the car barely worth more than a meter tall. Massive lower house of deepening inlets in the front of the rear wheel arches and feed the hungry and the engine cooling radiator with a much needed cool air, while its contribution to balance the look. It checks all the boxes hypercar and much more. Elements of the first Aero is supported, first of all party piece of the door and spoke wheel design simple. Last first ever one piece carbon fiber wheel ever installed on a car. They are products of an Australian company, Carbon Revolution, and 19 "fronts weigh just 5.8kg each.

The whole body and chassis, with the exception of the front and rear zones of influence, all made of carbon fiber - further emphasizing the lightness in your keywords. It is not necessary for maximum speed, but more for everyday driving and handling. All mid-engined cars require holes in the back to help get rid of heat - they usually take the form of slats or louvers, but since this car is nothing, but it has a circular cut outs in different diameters to expel heat and a pub debate. Moving to the other behind, the dynamics take over, with the aesthetics of playing second fiddle. Total underneath the car is sealed, leading to the rear, which functions as the mother of all cones, complete with F1-style exhaust. From this point of view, it bears little resemblance to the R8 and small, we mean small - proportion and shape are similar. Between the rear stabilizers, hydraulic brake air - a la Bugatti Veyron and Merc SLR, which comes into play at a higher than permitted speeds. Measurement of the wise, Aero II slightly narrower than before to follow the rules FIA GT, if they decide a race.

Interior

 The interior remains a mystery - probably because it is not 100% finished - but we can guess about what to expect. There will be room for two with all the creature comforts, like seat belts and air conditioning. We would not bet on heated and electric massage seats just yet. Judging by the old model, whose interior was rather casually, the interior of the new car should be better and get the basics right. We believe that the design will be based on a large screen LCD and a central quality of finish is better - after all, this car is really worth a drop of less than $ 1 million.

Performance

 You really need to ask? The figures on paper are striking enough - even before getting to the actual time of work and statistics. Invited to record powered by a four-camera, a twin-turbo V8 displacing 6.8 liters. The engine, like all other mechanical parts, which are all developed in house SSC itself. Many new shares power with the old 6.2-liter point - the block and the interior is the same design, so are the size and location of its 10 radiators. Changes come in the form of four valves per cylinder overhead cam (OHC) installed, and do not push the bar and the new specifications SSC turbochargers. New plants that are good for 1350HP and tremendous speed at 9000RPM! From zero to 62mph arrives in about 2.8 seconds and a top speed of SSC claim, wait for it, 275mph! Figures gear acceleration is not known yet, but you can be assured that they will be absolutely mind blowing. Thank God, the new car will include traction control, ABS with servo assist, and Brembo carbon-ceramic stoppers. We can not even imagine that kind of power to allow freely on public roads without fear of being arrested by the long arm of the law, feeling of acceleration, will rip your face. This thing should sound as it goes - all the turbo whistle and growl, angry V8.

Because it is RWD, not 4WD, as our friend Veyron, it's easier ... much easier. Aero II weighs 1200kgs, 638kgs total is easier than the relatively chubby Bugatti - and it produces more power. You do not need to be a rocket scientist to realize that the power to weight ratio is more than a ton 1000HP, placing it in league Caparo T1. Where Bugatti is a luxurious, refined, and civilized, to move, Aero II is a raucous, relentless, and about as scary as getting shave from Edward Scissorhands.

Suspension is the same setup coilover and so does the triple carbon clutch plates. Whether it goes so well round corners in direct remains to be seen. One thing is certain, though, it will create pants on fire every time you use the pedal on the right.

Competition

 In short, there is no other competition, except for the Veyron SS, and it costs $ 2.4 million, more than twice as much as $ 970 000 Aero II. You can also buy Agera Koenigsegg, but the price is unconfirmed, and therefore the maximum speed. Cars must be closely linked, but we think it depends on personal preference and if you are on the whole "mine more than yours" thing. Hopefully, the Aero II will not squeak, rattle or fall apart like so many other cars made by small firms in small quantities. The first cars will be delivered to their proud new owners around the last quarter of 2011.

Only time will tell whether the SSC will bring the top speed crown back to the U.S..

The 458 Challenge has made its world premiere debut in Maranello during the Annual Dealer Meeting, a traditional event that brings together the representatives of Ferrari’s international sales network.

The new berlinetta, which will flank the F430 Challenge in the Ferrari Challenge Trofeo Pirelli in the 2011 season, is the fifth model used by Ferrari in its one-make championship which, next year, will be extended to include a new Asia-Pacific series.

Coming just a few months after the Frankfurt Motor Show unveiling of the 458 Italia on which it is based, the 458 Challenge introduces a number of important modifications to adapt it for competition use.

The direct injection 4497 cc V8 remains strictly in production tune, with an output of 570 hp at 9,000 rpm. That said, modifications have been made to the gear ratios and calibration of its dual-clutch F1 gearbox to guarantee higher torque at lower revs. The 458 Challenge is also equipped with the E-Diff electronic differential already employed on the road-going version, a first for Ferrari’s track-only cars.

Significant work has also gone into cutting the car’s weight. This focused on both the exterior and interior with Ferrari’s engineers concentrating in particular on reducing the thickness of the bodyshell panels and on using lightweight materials, such as carbon-fibre and Lexan.

The new 458 Challenge also has a specific suspension set-up with solid aluminium bushings, stiffer springs, single-rate dampers, centre-nut 19” racing rims, larger dimension Pirelli slicks and a ride height lowered by 30mm all round. It is also equipped with the new generation Brembo CCM2 brakes which debuted on the 599XX, Ferrari’s extreme experimental laboratory car, and which are integrated with an ABS system that features two configurations – low grip and high performance for dry surfaces.

Another first for a Ferrari Challenge model is the adoption of the F1-Trac traction control system, the most sophisticated of its kind. Developed in-house by Ferrari, the F1-Trac system constantly monitors levels of grip for maximum high-performance road-holding. Two specific track-biased calibrations – wet and dry – have been developed for this application, with control logic and strategies derived from Ferrari’s extensive racing experience in the F1 and GT championships. The F1-Trac is completely integrated with the E-Diff to guarantee maximum acceleration out of corners.

The required ABS, F1-Trac and E-Diff calibration settings are selected via the manettino on the steering wheel, the first time this solution has been adopted on a model developed for the Ferrari Challenge series. The driver can thus either chose from the WET or DRY configurations. In high grip conditions it is also possible to select CT-OFF to de-activate the F1-Trac traction control.

In the course of the intensive development sessions involved in honing the 458 Challenge for the track, the engineers also managed to improve the car’s lap time at Fiorano by two seconds over that of its predecessor, resulting in a new record of just 1’16.5”. Equally impressive is the amount of lateral grip the new car generates – up to 1.6G.

With the new 458 Challenge, Ferrari is offering its sportier clients – professional and gentlemen drivers alike – a car that is extremely responsive, with great performance and superb handling. This mid-rear V8-engined berlinetta will allow Ferrari Challenge participants to enjoy to the full the exhilarating cut and thrust of the race weekends on the world’s leading circuits, as well as the passion that has always been an integral part of Ferrari’s one-make championship.
