Freestream

[SouL]

Not sure if this is old or not, but check this car out:

It's like an Atom doped up on copious amounts of crack.

 

[Poverty]

Damn that car is hot and fast.I want one.

 

[Sting]

Damn that looks sweet. Sucks about the practicallity of it though, i got road humps down where I live and that thing wouldnt stand a chance. lol

Still, if I was a rich bast**d I'd order one asap, looks like it could be a great track day weapon!

 

[dougiemeats]

Very nice. At first I thought it was the Hulme.F1 Champion 1967, but this one looks much better.

 

[Ev0]

Holy hell this thing is awsome. I can't wait to see if they do an official run at the Nurburgring in it; a sub 7 minute lap time is almost certain.

 

[Sting]

erm... so who's gonna buy me one when my birthday comes around?

 

[L8 Apex]

Let's see...500 horsepower, less than 1,100 lbs., 0-60 in 2.5s, killer looks...what's not to like?!?

I dunno, it looks like another one of those cars whose bodywork would get eaten alive by the green hell. Surely if it could get a clean lap it would rip it up.

 

[Dave A]

Yeah, it might be like the Enzo, unable to run the ring due to the bodywork. Well you could run an Enzo at the ring, but it'd cost a lot more than the 15 euro admission fee.

 

[Amemiya]

I want it.

 

[Gabkicks]

man... it looks like something out of a futuristic anime

 

[YSSMAN]

An F1 car for the road? I'm game...!

 

[VIPFREAK]

Geez... Is it too much to ask that professional photographers take more than one view?? You are after all "pros"

 

[a6m5]

What an unique design! Two thumbs up!

 

[Gabkicks]

you guys think we will see it on top gear?

 

[SouL]

I hope it makes Top Gear. The Atom was a fairly obscure car and it made it onto the show.
It's definitely a cool car... but "Freestream?" C'mon. Doesn't really roll off the tongue, does it? Hahah

 

[Gabkicks]

yeah the name for the car sucks.

 

[eliseracer]

The car's name is the T1.

 

[amp88]

3g+ braking and cornering and 0-100mph in < 5 seconds is bloody impressive. Looks half-decent too.

 

[JohnBM01]

Why do the British get all the cool cars? This thing almost reminds me of a car I used in "Ridge Racer Type 4." I think there was a Terrazi in the game called "Destroyer," and the outlandish lines sort of came to mind when I seen this bad boy. If ever there was an eighth deadly sin, this would be the eighth deadliest sin.

It should be a car anyone can have a hell of a good time with.

 

[joseph dobson]

i want one to

 

[Wolfe]

Hmm...when I clicked on the link I expected to see some sleek Ford concept or something...

I second the "Ridge Racer car" notion. The Gumpert Apollo looks like a Ridge Racer car, too.

This thing is hot as hell. I can't wait to see it in action. 👍

I'm guessing that the image is a computer rendering and there isn't a final product yet.

Interesting car though. 3+ cornering?!

 

[Dave A]

I'm wondering how your meant to fit 2 people in there.

 

[Sting]

I'm wondering how your meant to fit 2 people in there.

Good point, I'm wondering that also just looking at the images. Surely, it isnt side by side, I can only think one in front of other.

 

[VIPFREAK]

Well even if it is rendered they could still do more than one view.

I absolutely hate it when I look at something like a mag see a concept car or even production car. There's a big headline about it's so great, then you get to the pics, and it shows a side view. whooo hoo... That really tells me what the whole car is like.

 

[GilesGuthrie]

Hmm. "Bespoke engine" whispers "reliability issues" to me. Especially given that it's running at over 200bhp/l. 10,500 revs though: nice!

 

[eliseracer]

Showing one view creates interest, it's publicity. People now will be interested in seeing more, they'll go back to check for updates and will start to talk about it (this thread).

 

[F1GTR]

Looks like an Audi R8 had sex with an F1 car. Cool.

 

[dougiemeats]

VIPFREAK, www.worldcarfans.com has more pics of the car. (Well, just one is really new to me, the others are just close-ups but it gives a better angle of the car)
