Red Bull X1 : Future formula one?

 Have you ever think what future formula one car look like? 4 BIG wheels and a small jet-cockpit? If put in extra large turbine and add a glass canopy on it? Presenting the RedBull X1 :



  Design by F1 aerodynamist-genius Adrian Newey, test by world champion Sebastian Vettel, mean for Gran Turismo 5, this car probably out of any mind can imagine. The X1 equipped with a gas turbine driving 1,483 horsepower and 527 lb-ft of torque (quite a monster,eh?!) through a CVT ( continuously variable transmission) to the rear wheels. Simulated performance stats give it a top speed of 249 miles per hour, Vettel lap Suzuka circuit in 1.11.540 (virtual in GT5, of course) compare to his fastest lap in 2009 RBR F1 was 1.30.833.

Talk is enough, enjoy the pic :

  






  So, quickly grab yourself a PS3, racing seat (if any), and of course, an original Gran Turismo 5 game.. Rev engine real hard in front of ur LED T.V..


  A prototype made by Red Bull Racing team, in just 4 weeks!


 Suddenly think of my favourite childhood anime series, Cyber Formula GPX. This machine Knight Saber, piloted by the great Knight Schumacher (He was really name after the Legendary Michael Schumacher), look 80% alike of what u view just now.
