Fifth Gear: 1000bhp UBB Mustang (my fav girl inside)
 

YouTube - Fifth Gear: Web TV Edition 12 - 1000bhp UBB Mustang & Wales Rally GB

sorry but 1000bhp isn't impressive anymore.

putting that power down and drivability around the corners.. well that is a different story.

a GTR with half the power will murder that car around any proper track.

First you have no idea how many complications come up with making a streetable 1000hp plus car, it aint that easy yet but it is getting there.

Second its a tuner car and if they were focused on beating a GTR on the track it would probably be more focused on doing so. Trust me I have seen many a mustang that will walk all over a GTR modified or not it all comes down to how much money you want to spend/have at that point so its not worth arguing because I have read your other posts and realize its not worth my time :ugh2: :gtfo2:


******Also I just want you all to see that clearly Grabber Orange mustangs are bad @$$! :happydance::driving::tup:

so whats the point of the car then? straight line speed? you tell me? a bugatti veyron will walk all over that car in straight line speed with the same power. a 1994 Mclaren F1 with less then 700HP will murder that car in straight line speed. that car is a pig and you know it.

If you read the specs and know do a little research you will realize this car has a Griggs GR40 suspension set up which again if you RESEARCHED before posting stupid comments means it will most likely eat a GTR on the track and possibly a veyron.

Also if you read the story behind it you will also notice Price was a main concern and at $115,000 compared to your Veyron and Mclaren F1 $1 million dollar and above cars it really takes the cake. But you havent done any research and dont know all this so I will put you in the same category as Chief Roka and others and assume your ignorant and that its Bliss!!!

Here I will copy and past info for you to make it easier!

COMPANY PROFILE

Following on from the very successful Cannonball world events, Tim Porter wanted a car that got the adrenalin running, the moment he got in and pushed the start button. So in 2007 he set about designing and setting up the UBB Brand mustang.

Having to compete with the likes of Shelby and Saleen and many other builders, he needed something that would be far ahead in the way of performance, but also handling and more to the point ... price.

So in July of 2008 the first Ultimate Bad Boy rolled out of the workshop door. With the all alloy GT ford super car 5.4 litre 32 valve DOHC engine, producing a massive 1000BHP under the hood and the fantastic Griggs GR40 suspension package on, this is now a force to be reckoned with.

Porter wanted a car that he could drive on the road everyday, and on the track every weekend and if he had to take it down the drag strip would still do a quarter mile in under 10 seconds .

With four models to choose from, starting with the base 335bhp followed by the UBB 500 twin turbo, then the UBB700 Twin turbo and finally the Ultimate bad boy 1000 BH

:gtfo2:

LOL ... silly nurburg... getting caught in **** he shouldnt be getting caught in...

yea I really didnt want to start because I have seen the other threads and realize its pointless but I did anyways maybe because I own a Grabber Orange Mustang lol Next he will offer to race me at Lime Rock!!! :roflpuke2:

with his hyundai genesis!!! :inoutroflpuke:

you can write a book if you like. doesn't change a simple fact it is bested in every way by other cars with less HP. 1000 HP is just to get a headline. mean nothing.

Write a book?
He was being thorough in providing the specs so you can compare it to your cars you listed. Which by what he posted shows that is does very well, just because it is a Mustang does not mean it instantly loses to million dollar cars.

forget the mustang part. i dont care what it is.

its a big heavy car that is loud and obnoxious and masters nothing.

But you just said the Mustang was a master at straight line?
Bugatti Veyron weight - 4,162
UBB Mustang weight - 3,450
Sound is your opinion

haha this kid keeps getting owned

no because the bugatti and old mclaren f1 are faster.

and a bunch of other cars too.

zonda would smoke it. any of the radicals, gumpart. etc..

owned is out of style now. get a new word.

Really, why though? You keep saying these other cars would win, but they have nothing over this Mustang. This Mustang has the suspension, power, braking to compete with these cars.

Now, the Mustang does not have the "extras" that the cars you listed have. Such as, that luxury interior, or that "ooo a Bugatti," but in a race around a track this car can and will compete against these top super cars.

So if a F16 so why dont I just buy a jet instead :ugh2:

if you really think that big heavy pig will compete against Radical SR8LM, Gumpert Apollo Speed, Ferrari FXX etc.. around a track you got another thing coming.

english please.

Ok Manuel. Why not just buy a Lockheed Martin F-16 Fighting Falcon? It is a multirole jet fighter aircraft just in case you weren't sure. I mean you want to compare cars that cost approximately $1,000,000 (that's one million dollars) to a $110,000 dollar car. Why not just bump it up for something better next time?

Here you are nurburgring! starting another fire!

Isn't one thread enough for today? The other one is still there and hasn't been banned yet.

Oh, so now we are bringing in other cars?
Well the ones you listed now are a whole new ball game, they weight in at around 2,500-2,750. But weight is not the only factor in a race around a track, the cars you listed are great, but this Mustang was purposely built to compete against cars like this.

you are right. why should i waist my time in a lowly mustang thread anyway.. lol at muscle cars.. :icon18:

they might have tried to make it competitive but it isn't.

Yes, get back to your Hyundai thread!

Please provide some facts as to why, Rednek01 has provide the specs of the car. There are plenty of videos of this car running around showing itself off against other cars. Yet you have not provided one piece of evidence why this car is unable to compete against super cars.

Just wondering:
What would you pick out the two to win a race?
~Ferrari FXX
~Ultima GTR

:bowrofl:

Ultima GTR for the win. and it would smoke the stang. why? because it is a race at heart. the stang is a pig at heart.

Wait...but you said the heart of the car was a straight line?
Still lying I see.

So still not providing me with any facts as to why the Mustang would lose, other than you think it is a pig, yet proven it is not that heavy.

i am not going to go out of my way like i will when talking about the Z simply because we are talking about a mustang. a Z is a real drivers car. a mustang is driven by people that think nascar is the only sort of auto sport that exists.

That's why mustangs have won countless road course trophies and championships, several drift championships, a couple rallying trophies, countless drag trophies and championships, and high speed runs and who knows what other events. In fact the mustang is one of the few cars that has won so many events across so many types of Auto sports.

You post so many retarded blanket statements that are so wrong and off its really sad, its not even worth arguing with you because everybody here knows of your ignorance. do yourself a favor and give up! Seriously how old are you? 12? :tiphat:

and at the heart they are muscle cars. scared of the track. forced to be racers.

you want to talk about a real ford race car. lets talk about the Ford GT.

11 1/2 going on 12 by the way. :)

enough with that mustang it already reaches its peak but the bugatti hasn't which only means the veyron will most likely get that 500 bhp extra other than a ubb mustang's chassis can't handle any further tuning and by the way I suggest you do your research "Pros and Cons to Getting a Muscle Car - CarsDirect.comrednek01" and one more thing muscle cars are sooooo..... 1950s-1970s.:iagree: and your:owned: and now :gtfo2::werd::ohsnap1::hohoho:

Hi nurburgring.

That's the first new Mustang I like.

I know this is a resurrected Old thread... I watched the vid through the straight run.. and read the comments and can't believe not one person mentioned that the commentator was flying down the track at over 160 miles per hour.... without a seat belt.

Can you believe that - such a reckless disregard for the law?

That's still an ugly car....

Man... I wanted to comment on this thread 'til I realized how old it was... haha! But I guess I just did anyway!
