Actually I meant 1,000MPH. 10,000MPH is unrealistic....

The 'other' layout though, with those tubular tunnels.

Would love to race it here, would suit it perfectly, a perfect enviroment for VGT cars.

Wait, has that track been teased? Is that the official track map?

If only... It's a pity that such a layout is locked from the players who want to use it. Both the 2X and Tomahawk X (as well as the other possible "hyper-speed" VGTs) would fit this version of Route X quite nicely, not to mention that one could get great photos in the process.
And we're still going with the arguments about the X itself... It seems that any concept car that uses the letter X will be involved in a coat of criticism regarding its realism. And then some...

My theory stands strong that it would be available on the PS4, where they have an updated physics engine so you can... ya know... drive-up-side-fricking-down ahahah!
I mean you would be overtaking peole like this in the tunnel, so they have to prepare the physics for that:

Wow. I have never seen that before. Where did you get that from?

I didn't get it from there, I got it from a random forum from this guy that posts a whole load of de-crypted GT stuff and unleashes it to the world, cant remember his name though.
I must've got these pics in October, no, probably before then.
EDIT:
I just did a screen shot of what Dodge has to offer still as a teaser in the VGT section just now.
Of course its an old idea, but just makes me wounder what they must've been thinking of back then:

I think it was @Whistle Snap did on that a while on NeoGaf forum.

Off course Tomahawk X is a stupid car. It's sheer ridiculousness that this car has 2590 hp. I it had had around 1500 bhp at a weight of approximately a 1000 kg, it would have been kind of okay but this is just ridiculous stupidity.
I don't recall on looking forward to seeing noobs trolling online lobbies with this car and crashing out of every single corner.

You're right, I dont look forward to that, and I dont care about what they do with it, because I know me and my freind @AquaFanta are great drivers, and use any car in the whole game to their full potential and race them together, right from the 2CV to the X1 series, I'm sure we can do the same with this, it will be the most challenging of all, and thats what we are looking for, the greatest battles.

There is a variant that does exactly that, except maybe weight. Needless to say I don't use racecars often so I'll just use the S version.

You know, with all the negativity surrounding this rather sexy car, it makes me wonder how well some of my own concepts would be received around here...
2000+ hp really isn't that absurd, as you could easily obtain such power levels right now using conventional engines. The active aero the Tomahawk has is no more complex than the flight control surfaces found on aircraft. While the materials to build the car already exist, just not on a car production capable scale. Also, that pneumatic engine used on the front axle... that's called an air-turbine starter in the aircraft world. That is how many large jet engines are started, through pressurized air.
And now I should go back and work on one of my old 2000 hp designs that is going to use a turbine-electric drivetrain, because screw being "normal"

You're absolutely right, getting that kind of power shouldn't be that hard. But how do you explain the extremely low weight? The Sesto Elemento is smaller, yet weighs 300 kilos or so more than the Tomahawk.You know, with all the negativity surrounding this rather sexy car, it makes me wonder how well some of my own concepts would be received around here...

Modern composites can allow for such a low weight, which really isn't unrealistically low. Modern LMP's come in around 880-900kg, current F1 cars are ballasted up to their weight of 691 kg, old LMP2's were 675kg.
The Sesto Elemento is essentially still built like a street car, and not like an LMP or open wheel car. LMP's and F1's could weigh a significant amount less if there were no minimum weight rules. Especially when you start throwing in more advanced composites than what the current race cars use, such as some of the newer composites from the aerospace industry, along with things like 3d printing, exotic forms of aluminum (aluminum-yttrium alloy for example), and other expensive ways to cut weight.

SRT have given all of you the choice best suited for you, the S (street) 1005bhp, with only the rear wing complex moving and 918kg.
Then you have the GTS-R, with 2000bhp, 680kg, with the rear wing complex and side flaps working.
Then you have the X (Experimental) featuring the full 2600bhp, 715kg, and all of the complex body-covered-aero panels.
All of them are drastically different form eachother, and I have no idea why people are complaining soo much about this car being insane and stupid, FY its not a car, its a bunch of cars suited to YOU!
Left: GTS-R Middle: Experimental Right: Street
Not to mention Group-C cars (with a weight limit and ballast) were 750kg.

The minimum size of a power generator hasn't really changed much.
To get a laser powerful enough to cause air to explode (which is what a laser pulse detonation thruster requires), you need a lot of energy. The prototype Lightcraft, a 1 kilogram (2.2 pound) laser thruster, requires a 1 megawatt pulsed laser to get it to rise into the air. The only reason the Lightcraft concept actually works is that it doesn't actually have to carry its power supply on board -- the big, heavy, building-sized laser power supply sits on the ground and fires at the bottom of the thruster.
A modern nuclear reactor might provide enough power to run the laser on the Chaparral, but how would you carry the reactor?

I did not see rear wing in the S model.
