 SAR, what the hell is the official top speed of the 750 hp twin turbo? Will there ever be magazine verification of this? Will the "docilety" problems( the only problems listed) ever be corrected in the S7? And will there ever be a magazine test of the 100hp version?

 Top speed will be shown later this year and not by a magizine, but by a sactioning body such as the FIA. If you want a docile car buy a mercedes, at 2800 lbs with small light moving parts and 700 ft lbs of torque a Docile car this will never be. It is quite easy to drive everyday, however if your dont have a smooth foot it can it can get ahead of you!

I know this car is supposed to be like tha. Some people don't. For them it's a problem but not for me. Okay, so the REGULAR tt is going to have an official independtnt top speed run later this year, sweet. I know the gearing allows for 248mph. But again, the REAL question here, will we ever see a mag test of the 1000hp version?

And, SAR, I know that you, as an employee of Saleen, can neither confirm nor deny the existence of a post S7 supercar from Saleen, but can you give me a year to look forward to?

HEY!!! At least they get there target numbers to come close to the actual statistics that sanctioning bodies or magazines bring to light for us all to read about after there tests on it. Plus I'd love to see another company make claims as close to there own numbers that would be as close to these numbers that are either performed or claimed.
