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


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

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

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.

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