This thing is amazing, is there any road legal car which can even compare to this, on the track?

How about race cars? How many G's can a GT car pull? What about SuperGT cars?

3Gs is with downforce on maximum, something few corners or drivers will allow. Such tremendous downforce also creates problems on the drivers aswell as limiting top speed.
F1 cars get somethig akin to 4, which is already on the verge of dangerous without any body roll.
This statement is false

We can't tell yet
"We think we could get 1000bhp out of this engine, revving to 9500 or 10,000. You'd probably then be able to do 250-255mph, but it would be hard to meet the required emission standards, in order to be able to homologate such an engine."
Gordon Murray about the Mclaren F1
"The 787B was reported to have a redline around 9000rpm. However, interviews with Mazda's 787B race engineers revealed that the power of the quad-rotor increased dramatically above 9000rpm. One engineer stated that the car could develop more than 930hp with a redline around 10500rpm. They also discovered that all aspects of the engine were still in excellent condition and could have run another 24-hour race"

As well as the current GP2 racers.
Closer in concept to the Caparo, the Radical SR8 (road-legal in the UK) achieves 3g as well. Remember, it currently holds the record at Nurburgring for production cars at 6'55''.

3 Gs is a hell of a lot of force. Anyway, I could've sworn I heard something while watching Formula 1 that their machines can do 5.5 Gs in the corners... The drivers take in breaths before entering the turns... And, yeah, this car is awesome.

A couple of things regarding this car:
First of all, yes, 3G is insane. Everyday supercars like the enzo just can't compete. As for F1 cars, I've heard about 4.25G (sustained, and even high peak), which is akin ot a mild maneuver in a fighter plane (which can experience over 9G). THe human body cannot survive 10G or more for more than a breif instance, and only with special training and safety devices such as ar bladders.
Second of all: yes, there ARE other road cars that can compete with this in cornering: my favorite car (the Radical SR8) is one of them. It too has been rumored to be capable of in excess of 3G in turns and is fully street legal (look it up on this site for details).
Third, and most important: this car seems awesome, until you look at the price. I've heared estimates ranging from 400,000 to over 550,000! And that's bone stock, without the canopy and other extras! My Advice, by a used radical for about 15,000 and experience 90% of the thrill for a fraction of the cost.
Things I Hate:
2009 F1 cars, Bernie, Max, religion, trolls, BBQ sauce, ignorance, Ferrari Enzo, ricers, any car that weighs more than 2 tons (except the Bugatti Veryon), airplane food, English class art projects, death metal, server crashes, license restrictions, immaturity, prep schools, cold weather unaccompanied by snow, girls named "Shaniqua" and boys named "Deontre", racists, sexists, xenophobes, optimists, pessimists, rude moderators, gay bashers, bible bashers, Jew bashers, Christmas events/sales before Thanksgiving, flatulence, pennance, Hebew school, divorce, Detroit, haters, h4xxorz, pr0n, indies whores, hicks, hibillys, right-wingers, conservatives, watchdogs, hot dogs, lap dogs, prostitutes, Michael Vick, bad splrz, 1337spkrz, dead batteries, baby stabbers, bird flu, Communists, Masochists, Facists, Hitler's dirty sanchez, zeppellins, lead paint, lead gas, expensive gas, gas siphoners, spammers, whiners, #%!@es, snitches, bad signatures, contains, anything burnt (except rubber), FWD, iDrive, stupid traction/stability control accronyms, frozen cooling system sensors, non-diet soda, seltzer water, energy drinks, caffine, CAFE standards, smog, overpopulation, parasites, UFOs and anyone who claims to have seen one, asteroids, asterisk misusage/abusage, Rick Rolling, people who say "Joo" tube (it's owned by Christians), hunters (guns = cheating, hunt with spears), bees, global warming, political ads, car ads (not VW ads), crossovers, etc.

its that cheap??? (the SR8)... no way, damn. Btw, how much is 190,000 British pounds? That's what the Caparo was supposed to cost...
Sooo... when's this car supposed to be put into production? I wanna see it own on Top Gear or something, break some records, or burn a Veyron on the track. Better yet, put it up against the Radical SR8, which I'm assuming would be its best competition. That would be awesome, though unrealistic :/
Btw, is the T1 really lighter than an Audi R10??? crazy stuff

Cats are so awesome. I'm going to have a huge carpeted room full of carpeted pillars of various heights & painted as buildings. Then I'll fill it with my many cats & let them rule the city. Then once a month I'll dress up as Godzilla & pack myself full with catnip and invade- WCW 1. I have one of the most beautiful county ever, with everything except electronic/modern things 2. If you have ever read anything about Caucasia youd know how independent culture/language/everything we got. And we/cristians were sorounded by Arabs/Turks/mother#$%#ers/musulmans for 20 centuries and were fighting with them day/night for 20 centuries long 3. You are mess of french/Spanish/you dont even know who. Your grnadmother were eating babana on the tree when your grandfuther #$%#ed her and were borned yourmother. At this time we had our alphabet, 1 from 14 independent alphabets in the world4. You are a 22/25/whatever year old squirrel and rabbit without any #$%#ing personality 5. kle xar.

It will be much faster than an SR8... Look at the power to weight ratio. Not only that, they are now using an uprated engine

about the price !! the car is awsome, I was surfing the net and found a mag where a man had bought one for 320 000 dollars, thats cheap !
Bebi Quercianella is pretty much the same car except not its a cab and not as good airodynamics, same engine and weight (=
Bebi goes for 150 000 gbg or 280 k dollars :D .... I don't really know which one is my favourite, I think caparo but i depends on what mood i'm in

That 3g figure is without doubt done with big fat race slicks. There is no way any street tire could do that, and even on race tires, I'm doubting that number. Also, almost no driver on the street could handle this beast! They would crash it come the first turn!
