Dagger GT by TranStar

The Dagger GT is an American high-performance supercar currently being developed by TranStar Racing, LLC. It is being designed for the single purpose to be the world’s fastest production car. It’s based on the Corvette Cheetah, a mid-engine concept car that was penned by industrial designer, Ivan Luccion. It’s being developed by former NASA engineers.
The Dagger GT will be sold in 6 different models, 3 race-only (GT-R, GT-LS, GT-D) for breaking speed records and 3 road-legal (GT-S, GT-SS, GT-X) models.
Racing editions of the Dagger GT: ↓
- Dagger GT-R – will feature “Racing” package, with a 2000 hp engine, FIA safety package, dynamic, split rear wing, set up to challenge and establish new lap records at Virginia International Raceway and at Nurburgring, Germany.
- Dagger GT-LS – will be the “Land Speed” package with massive 3000 hp engine, 500 mph rated M/T landspeed tires, 1000 pounds of low front-end ballast, full bellypan with twin Venturi tunnels, land-speed wheel covers, landspeed parachute, backup chute, bonneville rollcage and a range of other options to help the buyers set new landspeed records in excess of 315 mph (507km/h). Options will include landspeed instrumentation and avionics packages, windshield options and other possibilities.
- Dagger GT-D - will be the “Drag” racing package equipped with 3000 hp engine, Goodyear pro stock slicks or DOT ET Drag tires, hydraulic launched double NHRA drag chutes, drag wing, NHRA rollcage, drag racing transaxle, a drag racing rear suspension that will emulate a Pro Stock Dragster and enable 260+ mph in the quarter mile for the fans who love to drag race. The Dagger GT-D should be shooting out for 1.2 seconds in the 0-60 mph (0-100km/h) acceleration, and TranStar also wants to hit 300 mph to set a new IMRA Standing Mile record (almost a 100mph faster than the Bugatti Veyron at 204 mph in the Standing Mile).
Street Legal editions of the Dagger GT: ↓
- Dagger GT-SS - will be the “Super Sport” model, a European street-legal 2000 hp version of the GT-R model. The owner of this edition can specify his/her suspension preference and interior design features.
- Dagger GT-S - will be the “Sport” model, a street-legal 600 to 800 hp version of the GT-R model. The buyer can choose custom suspension preference and interior design features. It will cost about $450,000.
- Dagger GT-LX - will be the “Luxury” model with engine by choice and all the interior luxuries and customization by the owner. This model will have about 300 pounds of insulation and sound-proofing material to give it the feel and sound suppression associated with high-end luxury motorcars. Suspension can be soft, sport or race mode, as preferred by the owner.
The 2000 hp+ editions of the Dagger GT will cost over $1,5 million.
Designs for the Dagger GT have been floating around for about three years now, and the company is still looking for investors on its home page, so we probably not going to see the Dagger go into production any time soon. It is a neighbor American rival with the ongoing luxury Trion Nemesis project  offering similar power of 2000 hp.

KTM X-Bow Superlight

The extensive use of bare carbon fibre has kept the weight to a minimum The KTM X-Bow Superlight is one of the variants of the KTM X-Bow model range. As the name suggests the Superlight is the lightest model in the range - but not by much, the base model KTM X-Bow is just 5 kg (11 lbs) heavier. Although the Superlight is a full 40 kg (88 lbs) lighter than the GT4 version. The weight reductions to the KTM X-Bow Superlight have been made possible through the extensive use of carbon fibre. The monocoque structure with integrated crash protection is composed entirely of carbon fibre and left unpainted to show of the carbon fibre weave. The few body panels which are fitted to the X-Bow Superlight are also formed from carbon fibre. Additional weight savings were also achieved through the use of unique light-alloy wheels finished in a dark lacquer. Powering the KTM X-Bow Superlight is the same Audi-sourced 2.0 litre turbocharged engine found in all the X-Bow models. This engine puts out 24...

McLaren 650S Sprint

McLaren’s new 650S model now comes in three flavors, the standard road going 650S, the competition-spec 650S GT3 for serious racers, and now there’s the 650S Sprint which is aimed at track enthusiasts who still want a little bit of comfort. The 650S Sprint also replaces the MP4-12C-based 12C Sprint as McLaren’s track toy for the super-rich.

On the inside the McLaren 650S Sprint features a stripped-out design with a FIA-approved rol...

Maserati Ghibli vs BMW 6 Series : Which Will You Buy?

When considering vehicles like Maserati Ghibli and the BWM 6 Series Gran Coupe, both reflect an effort toward blending dignified luxury with exhilarating performance. Though beholding vehicles of this caliber is always an exercise most fruitfully left to the natural eye, the image above serves as a simple example of each sedan’s inherent dignity. In lieu of experiencing each vehicle’s performance profile from behind the wheel, the table provided similarly works to demonstrate what both Ghibli and BMW’s 6 series have been engineered to accomplish. Comparing the Maserati Ghibli vs. BMW 6 Series in this regard yields a number of important emphases. Local clients will notice that both vehicles develop their identity around six-cylinder engines with a pair of strategic turbochargers. Yet regardless of identical displacement and analogous induction technology, Maserati serves its Ghibli clients with significantly greater quantities of horsepower and torque. In addition to t...
