(technical specs in the end, in french, sorry)

Some basics:
4WD / 875hp / 875 kg / 883 Nm, V6 twinturbo, 3200 cm³.

• 0 - 100 km/h : 1’’8 (Red Bull x1 2011 is 1.5)
  
• 0 - 200 km/h : 4’’8 (Red Bull x1 2011 is 3.0)
  
• 0 - 240 km/h : 7’’

The 208 is the newest Peugeot platform for racing (208 R2 for rally, 208 Racing Cup for racing, 208 GTi for road). I'm sure we'll get her in GT7... The 208 T16 is an fantastic car, with a lot of "wow" effect due to her last performance on Pike's Peak, it should be in GT rigth now !

The T16 use some elements of the 908 LMP car (aero, rolling trains) and the Pescarolo engine.

Some lap times :
0'45.86 in Goodwood festival of speed 2013 (winner ex-aquo with a Rebellion Racing Lola Toyota B12/60 (LMP car - best petrol engine on Le Mans in 2011, just behing R15 / 908))
8'13 on Pike's Peak.

Would be awesome to see this race the Monster Sport SX4 Pikes Peak Special.

It is a cool car. Though if we did get PPIHC and more associated cars, I'd like JP Dayraut's MINI too

 

[Wardez]

Oh hell yes, this is just necessary.

 

[ObscureSerenity]

The 'Mini' in the looks sweet too!

Is that a challenge? They don't call it Monster for nothing.

No it's a fact. It was faster than monster by a full minute

 

[kennylmao]

No it's a fact. It was faster than monster by a full minute

*gasp* D: NOOOOOOOO

 

[BlueShift]

No it's a fact. It was faster than monster by a full minute

1 minute and 33 sec, Loeb gives no money change

Tajima ran a 9:46. He had no serious competitors since Loeb though. I hope there will be a good figth next year, I also hope Loeb comes back...

This car on an authentic Pikes Peak. I would buy GT6 if this is all it had.

Yes, we need the Peugeot! We also need Rhys Millen's Hyundai that was sweet as hell and also broke the course record but was obviously over shadowed lol. I want the Peugeot, the Hyundai, and the Pikes Peak Hillclimb track added together!

I like the idea of a Pikes Peak pack.

• Full course with time/weather
• Peugeot(s)
• Hyundai Genesis above
• Toyota Celica (https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/threads/rod-millens-1994-pikes-peak-toyota-celica.299270/)
• Toyota Tacoma
• Monster's cars are already there, as is the killer
• Audi Quattro

 

[Serious seb]

... yes ! and with actual and old track (dirt !!)

"It constantly blows your mind," Meeke told us when he's finally stopped bleeping. "It makes a WRC car feel like a toy. It's nuts... absolutely nuts!"
Damn!

The happiest looking car to ever set a record at Pikes Peak.

I don't see a photo Did you add one?

Edit: I can see from my post quoting you that you added a YouTube vid. Strange I couldn't see that from your original post

 

[Azure Flare]

I did post the video first, then decided to add the sentence afterwards, but I accidently put in in the wrong place and nothing was in the post, but I fixed it now.

 

[johnmaxmanoy]

Oh hell yes, this is just necessary.

It would be Oh heck yes.
