Speeding! Top-Speed Shootout
Ten ultra machines. Five miles of track. One foot, flat to the floor

"How fast?" The question is as old as the automobile itself. The answer depends on your criteria: 0-60, the quarter mile, road-course lap times, or, the ultimate bench-racing fantasy number, top speed.[/Ascertaining a car's flat-out max isn't easy. Factors insignificant at 60, 80, or even 100 mph--the soundness of a car's hardware and the driver's software, aerodynamics, road surface, even local wildlife, for example--can become downright grave as you reach for 200[/align][*][align=center]

Dusting off the lower-right quadrants of speedometers has been a Motor Trend staple for more than 30 years. Given all the hot, new hardware already here or arriving shortly in our market, it was again time to round 'em up and head for the big track. But to run just for the top-speed number, however, would be to squander this outstanding automotive cast. So we ran the usual regimen of performance evaluations (acceleration, braking, slalom) and added something new: a figure-eight test. About the size of those that've been running at bullring racetracks and county fairs for decades, our figure eight ran one car at a time on grippy pavement, for obvious reasons. With the right proportions, a large figure eight is the simplest expression of a road course, requiring that cars accelerate, brake, and turn hard and long in both directions. The process and results are as entertaining as they are enlightening
Like exceptional cars? Need speed? Interested in enough performance data--and even some new record-breaking runs--to keep you and your gearhead buddies buzzing for weeks? Then we gotcher story right here.[

[align=center][size=5]Higher Speeds Drive Traffic Deaths Up
Fast Driving is an Emerging Safety Problem [/align][align=center]Speed Kills / Speed Sells / Enforcement Needed[/align][align=center]Speeding increases the likelihood and severity of a crash. The faster a vehicle is moving, the less time the driver has to react to a hazard, and for other road users to react to that vehicle. A speeding vehicle requires more time and distance to stop, and is harder to control. Speed is a factor in 30 per cent of fatal crashes and 12 per cent of all crashes.[/align][align=center]As speed increases over 100 km/h, the fatality rate of vehicle occupants goes up exponentially. For example, the chances of being killed in a vehicle traveling at 120 km/h are four times higher than at 100 km/h. When a car crashes near 200 km/h the chances of survival are minimal.[/align][align=center]Speed of impact is critical for pedestrians, the most vulnerable road users. A 1995 European Transport Safety Council report found that only five per cent of pedestrians died when struck by a vehicle at 32 km/h; fatalities increased to 85 per cent at 64 km/h.[/align][align=center]Speed Kills[/align][align=center]There is an ongoing debate in Canada about speed limits on major highways. Advocates of higher limits need only look across the border for proof that raising speed limits is a bad idea.[/align][align=center]A recent study examined the impact of higher travel speeds on US rural interstates after the repeal in November 1995 of the national speed limit. Researchers found states that had increased their speed limits to 75 mph (120 km/h) experienced a shocking 38 per cent increase in deaths per million vehicle miles than expected, compared to deaths in those states that did not change their speed limits. States that increased speed limits to 70 mph (112 km/h) showed a 35 per cent increase in fatalities.[/align][align=center]The US Insurance Institute for Highway Safety has tracked vehicle speeds on rural and urban interstates since 1987. Preliminary data for 2003 show the highest speeds the Institute has ever observed. In California, for example, the speed limit is 70 mph. However, the mean speed is 74. Well over two-thirds (69 per cent) of drivers go over 70 mph, and 19 per cent go faster than 80 mph. [/align][align=center]As US speed limits have risen, statistics show an associated increase in lives lost. The Canada Safety Council seriously questions why any jurisdiction in Canada would choose to follow this lead.[/align][align=center]Speed Sells[/align][align=center]High performance is the mantra of today's automotive manufacturers. From 1980 to 2000 the average horsepower-to-weight ratio, a key measure of performance, increased by over 50 per cent. In the 2000 model year, six per cent of vehicles had turbocharged engines, the highest percentage ever.[/align][align=center]Ads show vehicles racing and swerving on miraculously empty roads, chasing or being chased, and performing daredevil stunts. Routine disclaimers that once warned the unwary consumer to drive safely or obey speed limits have all but disappeared. [/align][align=center][b][size=4]Such lifestyle advertising subliminally encourages drivers to break the law by speeding and driving recklessly. The impact of that message is powerful. In recent years, st

 

haha what is that octane 666? lmao
