That’s a really expensive “cheap” car!!! For $77k I could buy my car 4 times over and have change to spare. hahaha
For 77k, you could also lap Airfield, park the car, and be having Devonshire tea by the time your Cobalt finishes the lap 
(yes yes I know, I say ‘cheap’ as in relative to those ridiculous CF builds I fancy. Even 150k for a full CF body and panels isn’t… that… expensive…)
I think my little Cobalt might just make you shit your pants, strop. 
Depends on how you drive it, I suppose. My brother driving his Hyundai Elantra could make me shit my pants if he gets any more unintentional air 
if you get that scared in a car, you guys might shit your hearts out on a motorcycle going the same speed/pace
It’s not about how fast you go, it’s about how well you control it bro
well… that… and type of vehicle matters…
doing 60 in a normal car is meh, but going 60 in a cv2 might be a different experience
so is on a bike. 60 on a high capacity bike is fine. 45 on a moped, “OH GOD IM SO GONNA DIE!!!”
True, doing 60 in an MX-5 with the roof down kept me awake on the highway. Doing 60 in my Civic, with its Lexus-like levels of sound insulation and windows tinted to maximum legal amount, I might as well be in a sensory deprivation tank.
ole Beany oughtta used that trick before he binned his F1, twice
oops, I think I went too far, didn’t I…
oof…

I would like to add that I consider Rowan Atkinson a great car connoisseur and a very competent fast driver (having proven this by topping the Top Gear Reasonably Priced Car leaderboard when it already had like 4 dozen times on the board). And that he did fairly recently sell the same F1 he wrecked twice (it was rebuilt both times), because he felt it was time to move on.
[size=150]Aurora WRC R[/size]
The Aurora is a small city hatchback from a subsidiary company of Meliora Automotive (The name of the company is yet to be defined). On it’s WRC trim, it has a AWD system and a 1.6 liters turbo DI L4 DOHC producing 308 hp and 331 lb-ft (with mandatory air restrictor). But when the air restrictor is removed and the car is on Tarmac configuration…oh well, good things happen.

Oh my, the times are heating up there. I do have a few aces up my sleeve but I must refrain from posting because otherwise it’ll ruin the rest of the board.
Also, I just realised something horrible: the closed beta costings has changed such that using a tiny factory actually makes the car a lot cheaper, not more expensive. I tend to use tiny factories because that’s what my company has, and it’s wrecked my cost estimations plus the competitiveness of my cars. No wonder I thought I was doing better than I was!
Very interesting first post there, Marcus. Congrats on getting first place! Judging by the smoothness of the torque curve alone, that car looks like it’s been very well tuned.
Thanks. 
I spent 3 days tuning this car.
The question I’m asking myself now is… is it possible to make cars in Automation accelerate from 50-75 any faster than 0.9s?
