      The v16 he designed was actually two ls motors fused together imagine a v16 pushrod engine that is two ls motors basically fused together I bet it was legit too but I don’t think it ever made 5000 horsepower at least not reliably

    Heres just some bonus things that just make this whole car not what it seems:
    -car has very little ventilation for a engine of its size to keep it cool, very reminiscent of the Trion Nemesis in this aspect
    -interior is identical to that of a c8 (partially mentioned in video)
    -only 1 v16 was made and Steve Morris has been doing anything but building more of then (his channel is proof of this)
    -added wing which would only slow the car down, not ideal if you were making a car that is supposed to break speed records, car also doesnt look particularly aerodynamic
    -apparently weighs over 2300kg/5200lbs. Its 16% heavier than a bugatti chiron.
    -Poor build quality, earlier versions such as the one originally shown off had panels fall off the car on camera (referring to shmee150 video)
    -Previous iteration between the debut version and the c8 rebody had a extremely cheap and dated interior.
    -Never tested by actual car review channels or given to publications to review (SB is not exactly the most indepth of channels)
    -shotty film work on the official channel, thumbnails having peoples fingers in the shot, low quality, unprofessional content)
    -highest speed achieved so far in testing is 186mph, which is actually SLOWER than the claimed base model c8 topspeed.
    -car has very little room for radiators to help further cool said v16 or even v8 engine.
    -emissions?
    -might add more later

      Weight actually doesn’t matter much for top speed if you have a ton of power. The fastest land vehicle weighs 100 tons but it makes 100,000 horsepower and still reached a speed of just under 800 miles per hour.

      ​@@chabweezy9905 yeah, that being said, you strap 2 jet engines to anything, it will be fast. The McLaren F1 was so fast, because it was light and aerodynamic. Not because it had a lot of power (pro tuners back then were pushing 900+hp on 2JZ engines). Another example would be the Ruf CTR. It only had around 470hp, but could reach 210mph. The Veyron needed so much power, compared to the F1, because it weighed like 1350lbs more.

A V8 at 8000 rpm should essentially sound the same as a V16 at 4000 rpm. That’s the same reason why an Inline 5 engine sounds the same as a 72 degree even firing V10 at half the revs

      the smx isnt just a v8 it is a 9.7L billet big block made to make the power while being able to do drag and drives. But as we have seen size isn't everything because all the smx cars have been getting beat and out lasted by a factory block coyote in a s197 mustang called snot rocket and it ru n s 6.3 in the 1/4 a number even mullet and some promods haven't hit with the smx. Now most ppl are pulling their LS swaps and jumping ship from chevy and dodge to go fast when they see that stock sealed coyote mustangs and f150s run 7s (mustang gt) 8s f150 in tge 1/4 mile needing boost and fuel. and factory computer and built factory trans. with no aftermarket billit blocks being made ppl are pushing factory blocks into the 6s and 5s with light card. if steaveorris started building a SM billet coyote now game over for most engine swaps. when snot rocket was owned by its previous owner joel steele it started life as a s197 boss mustang he street raved and drove to work and eventually it became the first domestic h pattern stick car in the 6s in the 1/4 a few years back. he was competitive against billet block 2jz drag supras that jad to swap motors after runs and he was running 6.7 before he sold tge shell to Brett lasala and now it does what it does

You're comment that it doesn't last probably stems from Mullet's engine, a used engine that saw many miles. It was a 6 year old engine. I don't follow all the racing stuff, but I'm sure by percentage, there's more broken Coyotes than SMX engines. You see a couple of SMX engines failing and you think it won't last. They're making so much power and being pushed to it's limits, of course stuff is going to break.

    To be fair to the Vector, the early test cars weren’t ready & were released early with stipulations to deal with that. McEnroe, the famous tennis player, took one of them to show off to his friends & Vector warned him about not pushing it too hard before they could complete final assembly. What’d he do? Completely destroyed it, doing everything they told him not to, & prompting him to pull out of the deal very publicly, which severely impacted Vector’s reputation. It might have had its share of problems anyways, but due to them wanting to get them in the public eye early, they caused their own downfall. Still a badass car that managed to do ~220 which was crazy for the time.

    The biggest factor to overcoming a sustainable, safe, and easily repeatable 300mph top speed is the tires. The last time I checked (which was about a mon. ago) no one has been able to produce a tire that is practical, decent composition(as opposed to some crazy high-priced material dev'd by NASA) and reasonably priced that can safely withstand the centrifugal g-forces exerted on a tire at rotating at 300+mph. Which I believe they said was about 4500rpm at 290-300mph. That may be a little off but I'll have to go look it up again.

    There is one more thing to mention: to dissipate the residual heat from 5,000 hp, a piston engine would need as much radiator area as two diesel locomotives. The only thermal engine that could pack that much power into a package small enough to fit into a car would be a turboshaft, with the additional advantage of needing neither radiators nor a transmission - a 1-speed single ratio gear would be enough. But the car would not be able to carry enough fuel to even reach its top speed.

    2:39 that's a proper funny way of describing the obsession with top speed 😅😆
    Thing is though, most high performance cars lose a shit load of power from exhaust heat. The Veyron for example, had something like 4000HP, but loses 3000 because of the exhaust, ridiculous...

    Ya know I never thought about how Top Fuellers etc. actually convert that power into usable tire rotation... The clutch slip/engagement graph you showed made so, so much sense though when you listen to the revs and knowing a rough speed curve and how they pick up.... I figured they would at least have a second speed to knock into up at the big end but nope. Makes you wonder though how effective a torque convertor with lock-up would be in place of a multi pack clutch assembly, right? Is that something that has ever been done? Not like an auto box, just more as a load dampener which could be controlled based on known and measurable friction points and viscosities.

    I have never heard someone refer to the W8 as vaporware. It performed excellently, but needed refinement and the bugs worked out. It had a successful 0-60 test of 4.1, extremely close to their claimed 3.9. There was never a top speed test, so the results are unknown, but Car and Driver estimated 218mph, which is absolutely phenomenal for the year.
    These two are not comparable and there are far better examples to use.

      That is why methanol is the most common fuel for engines like what Steve Morris builds. Some people run alcohol, e85, and some race gas, but methanol cools the best and allows smaller radiators for street driving on pump gas where they only make a few psi of boost. A hypercar is certainly not the same as a purpose built drag and drive car. A 5000 hp drag and drive car is purely about function to go fast and then drive to the next track and while they can look nice, they are not wrapped up to look like the devil sixteen with no hardware showing.....more like a semitruck where you can see what actually gets the work done at that level. It isn't easy to hide all that stuff.

Sure you can make the case that rolling resistance increases and you need more downforce to be stable at 300mph but to say you need eight times the energy seems way off to me.
