When it comes to TopSpeed ​​pretty much everyone comes up with the idea "Bugatti Veyron", this currently holds the bar with 431,072 km / h at the top. Now, however, the guys from Performance Power Racing (PPR) want to shake it up and secure their entry in the Guinness Book of World Records. Flaps it is with a tuned Ford GT on the road with crazy 1.885PS.

In the test drives carried out by Performance Power Racing, the GT reached a top speed of 455,72 km / h. This value would also be a significant increase compared to the Veyron. The name of the monster is BADD GT and was specially assigned by PPR.

The values ​​of the FORD GT are as dark as the name sounds: 1.885 hp, 0-100km / h -> 2,5 seconds and a MaxSpeed. of (at least theoretically) 482 km / h. The basic engine of the GT is the series unit with 5,4 liter V8 and 550 hp. Thanks to a built-in twin turbo system with a corresponding intercooler, the GT then has an unbelievable 1.885 hp.

Two years ago, PPS achieved a top speed of 2 km / h with a GT. Unfortunately, there was no entry in the Guinness Book because the GT at that time was neither street legal nor had it been built at least 455,72 times. However, both are the basis for an entry. This could change now, however, the current GT is already street legal and sales of 30 copies are in full swing. Due to the price of one million dollars, this can take a while. Anyone willing to invest this amount will automatically receive an adventure package including high-speed driving trainingng.
