Bullshit. Americans simply can't make cars as fast as Europeans can. This is about production cars, you don't need any particular racetrack to reach top speed.

>>27638492
This is what I like about ROC, it puts the drivers on equal footing. The best part is Edwards beat Schumacher then immediately lost to Coulthard even though Coulthard crashed:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=41xNbvIXRqo

Beating Schumacher is a gold standard but it doesn't guarantee you gold. Although some people do like to pretend it is.

Be fair. American car culture centered around building a car with a budget that a typical lower middle class household could afford to spend. Porting, camming, generally upgrading the Camaro/mustang/civic/etc. European car culture developed for and around the aristocracy, except for rally cars. Their culture developed enthusiast cars for the very wealthy and therefore had a much higher performance expectation than "I just took this Plymouth to 500hp, let's go to the farm roads and let 'er rip"
Even American racing series focused originally on stock cars, cars that individuals could go to a dealer and buy the same day as the race.

Yurocuckolds live in a serfdom society divided into two classes: nobility and peons. Due to the massive wealth inequality, there is demand for ultra high market items. America is the land of opportunity and has a middle class so the demand is more balanced.

The average eurocuck will never drive anything fast, meanwhile the average American high schooler can drive a Mustang or equivalent which is faster than most European shitboxes on the road. A Mustang in Europe costs at least double, and that's with the inferior European purchasing power. The average American is wealthier than the average E*ropean. That's the difference between E*rope and America. It's not the own you think it is.
>>
>>27638534
There's is fluke but Edwards isn't a bad driver. I wouldn't expect him to consistently beat Schumacher but I wouldn't exactly call it a fluke, more a case of 'better on the day'.

As for Coulthard beating Edwards, I think Coulthard was showboating. Look at the way he flicked it on that last corner, he was probably planning a drift across the line but forgot what car he was in and lost it. The man had a lead and half and let his hubris command the situation.
>Winning the race
>Try to show off
>Lose control
>Crash
>Recover
>Still win the race
Which makes his victory even more embarrassing for Edwards, the poor guy was probably riding the high after beating Schumacher and Coulthard left him knee deep in a New Delhi suburb.

German and English are Germanic languages. French is a mix and is a Latin language. Genetically the British and French are heavily Celtic with a Latin component. Nordic countries is just a geographical term referring to Northern Europe. A variety of different ethnicities like Finnish and Sami live in the Nordic countries.

Anyway stop derailing discussion chud let's get back on topic. Most of the land speed records were made in America and top fuel is American.

The only one that's remotely close is the SSC but is it really production if they only made 5 of them? Every single one of the others was made at least in the double digits, 13 was the only one under 20 in fact.
And yes, the Shelby Cobra is British. Pretending it's American is the embarrassing thing. Memessey doesn't even have their VIN, it's a modded Lotus.

Does that matter, when the chassis was designed and made in England? What's worse, it only took 2 years for the Italians to beat it with a car with an engine 43% smaller making 28% less power. Americans try to bruteforce their way into speed and end up admitting they can't make cars.
Anatomy of an American record (or attempt):
1) pick nimble European car
2) fit a truck engine in it
3) hope it's fast in a straight, driven dynamics be damned
>>

>Where were Cobras assembled?

>The AC Cobra, sold in the United States as the Shelby Cobra and AC Shelby Cobra, is a sports car manufactured by British company AC Cars, with a Ford V8 engine. It was produced intermittently in both the United Kingdom and later the United States since 1962.

Look at the years and engines dude. It's pretty obvious. They're almost all powered by surplus aero engines. How many turbocharged aero engines were there that would fit in a land speed car? An Allison out of a P38 and that's about it. The rest were either radials or extremely low volume. Land speed guys in every class that allows them use turbos, and have for decades, they just aren't the overall record cars but class record cars.
>>
>>27638897

By your logic, the 'Australian' Ford Falcon is actually American. Retard

>>27638894
>wasn't american
>s-so what if it was, it didn't hold the record for very long
Lol. If we count the Super Snake Cobras, they held the record for like 15 years. It's funny how every time the US came up with a faster car, Eurokeks had to come up with a new rule to exclude it. Completely fine when prototype Lambos and RUFs set the record with non-factory tunes, but as soon as the Vector W8 and Callaway showed up the rules shifted to 'mass production assembly-line stock'.

The Shelby Cobra is full of fakery, they even inflated the amount of chassis built by skipping VINs and then in the 90s they got certificate duplicates for the "missing" cars and tried to pass some counterfeit actually American cars as the originals. Shelby and Hennessey are both crooks whose brightest automotive ideas were to put big engines in Euro cars. Their real brilliance was scamming marks though.
>>
>>27638926
Unlike the Cobras, the Falcon's subsequent versions have little in common with the original car. If you said Argentine Falcons are American then I'd agree.
>>
>>27638949
Shelby is possibly the single greatest automotive legend fucking ever.

In addiction to being a race car driver, he also help make the Viper and 05 Ford GT. and tuned a lot of other shit+ made his own cars from scratch. he was also the only reason the GT40 started winning.

don't compare him to hennessey.

Europe basically watched their greatest formula one driver of all time get his cheeks clap by an average at best nascar driver. and Schumacher, being too intimidated by the hill billy nascar driver, pissed his driving suit and let it happen.

>Issues encountered during the December record attempt prompted the SSC team to re-engineer the cooling system with larger intercoolers, more water capacity in the water-to-air intercoolers, and increased venting on the dry-sump oil system. Shelby noted that all future Tuatara models will get these changes and they will be retrofitted to all Tuataras already on the road today.
So it's not the production model and they also basically admitted the earlier record was fake. SSC is shadier than Hennessey, holy shit.

>>27640649
I'm not doubting the speed, I'm doubting the production car. It's like when BMW cheated in Nurburgring
>>
>>27640674
nothing to doubt. you even said in your own greentext that they retrofitted all the changes to ALL of the cars. so there is no difference between the "production version" and the customer car they used for the speed run. they're all the same. unlike Keonigsegg and VAG who's speed cars are not the same as the rest of the models. out of all Agera RS for example, only 11 of them had the upgrade for the top speed.
>>
>>27640681
They promised they'd retrofit them, records aren't made on promises.
>>
>>27640681
Also with VAG it's just a limiter they disable, they don't beef up the speed run cars. Not sure about the Agera but it's probably bullshit because they're Swedish and not crooked Americans.

how do you know its not something else? again, if we're going down the conspiracy rabbit hole, why would i trust VAG when they're known liars themselves. plus, they have their own private test track that only they have access to, allowing them to get away with practically anything they want.

They test them on roads and also you shouldn't believe them but Guinness who investigated the record and concluded no modifications other than disabling the limiter were done.
>>
>>27640715
>When talking about production cars, yes.
so VAG's speed record cars weren't production. i have no reason to believe they are.
>They test them on roads
they don't do the actual speed test on roads, where they can fudge anything.

guinness didn't investigate the record, they just verified that the car reached the speed it did. they did not do a tear down of the car and full mechanical inspection. so they'd have no way of knowing.

But I'll be the first to acknowledge that Eastern Europe is much more pleasant than most places on the planet in this regard. Even in poor areas I wouldn't worry about much of anything walking around there, except gypsies.
Western Europeans don't have as much to back up the superiority complex these days however, especially years deep into the migrant crisis. I hope they can take a 5 minute break from thinking about and comparing themselves to random Americans to actually address their very real problems, but that would require actually acknowledging that they are not infallible and do indeed have problems to deal with.

The French are close to Germanics, because they descend from them. However, there's a split marked by the Loire river. South of the river, French tend to be closer related to the Spanish (mix of celtic culture people, and Iberians, with some Latin). French are mutts generally.

>celtic
Last I checked, celtic was a culture, and there wasn't really a definitive people beyond a culture. Celtics are closely related to Germanics anyway. The English are definitively Germanic, with some native Britons, and Norse in there. I can't be assed to pull up autism gene charts rn

>Last I checked, celtic was a culture, and there wasn't really a definitive people beyond a culture. Celtics are closely related to Germanics anyway. The English are definitively Germanic, with some native Britons, and Norse in there. I can't be assed to pull up autism gene charts rn
Lol no. Nazi propaganda

ummmm, I think you'll find the world's fastest production car prior to the Mclaren F1 was the Jaguar XJ220, stick another >British in there

>Tested by Road & Track. The 349.4 km/h (217.1 mph) Guinness World Records speed was measured by Jaguar one-way without independent control with a car modified for about 50 extra horsepower, the 341.7 km/h (212.3 mph) claims were also factory measured without independent control.
Brits cheating just like in the 1986 world cup, praise the hand of God countercheating them more efficiently

Isn't it odd how Koenigsegg uses an engine that's based entirely on a Ford Modular V8? Isn't it odd you skipped over a ton of American cars which did hold the title of fastest production cars simply because half used bodies based on European cars but heavily modified while using a fully American engine? Kinda the opposite of a Koenigsegg where it has a homebuilt body and chassis, but the engine is just a modified Ford V8 so I guess it shouldn't be on your list

The only things remaining from the Ford are the 90 degree angle and the bore spacing, fuck off chomo faggot.

The engine was made by Lotus, therefore it's just another dime in a dozen european record

>deflecting to unrelated history because you know even America's fastest production cars are merely european cars
Typical american, cowers away when confronted from the truth, you'd think that people like that would have built the fastest production car in the world by now just so they could escape people finding out about their lies a little bit faster, but alas engineering is not an american forte
>>
>>27649357
The French actually gave help relatively unprompted because it made their rival look bad
>>
>>27649772
>Unrelated history
>A war that was famously won by America supplying Europe with dozens upon dozens of war machines that were universally praised and preferred over domestic offerings
>Lol Americua candt indo enjeneering
>>
>>27650194
If America was that great at engineering they'd have built the fastest production car already, but all americans built are lies and embarrassment

they do though

That's an european car
>>
The most iconic production cars and race cars ever made are Italian, all of them.
>>
>>27652365
GT40 is the only reason anyone outside europe even knows what le mans is.
>>
>>27652543
Correct, the Lola MK6 is truly one of the crowning achievements of british engineering
>>
>>27638436
My miata could smoke all those slow pieces of shit

>>27652543
And the 917K
>>
>>27652543
I learned about the GT40 participating in Le Mans because of /o/ shitposts lol, to me Le Mans is all about the prototypes and I'm not even European. Pretty sure all the GT40 amounted for was a class "win"

doesn't look like a lola to me.
>>27653435
this anon is a domb zoomer nigglet and makes me embarrassed of my own generation.
>>
>>27653442
No no, it absolutely looks like a Lola, because that's what a Lola looks like, don't know what you're talking about, probably another american attempt at deceit
>>
>>27652311
No that's manufactured entirely in Massachusetts retard
>>
>>27652548
I mean it's not like the British ever did anything impressive engineering wise
>>
>>27653737
Nope, that's an european car, assembling a car doesn't make it your own car, you should know that, considering all the japanese cars assembled in the US nowadays because americans are incapable of engineering a good car
>>27653739
They must have considering that americans still claim their cars as their own, and rely so heavily on their engineering prowess, but I see your point, the british aren't even in the top 5 best european car builders, all they do is kit cars built by 5 people in a shed

That's a factory five kit car retard. One of the first images of Google.
