In this Fifth Gear segment, you will see Ariel Atom 2 attempts to break the 0-60 mph world record at Silverstone. The car is powered by a supercharged Honda Civic Type R-sourced K20 engine, churning out 300bhp. Did he make it? Video after the break.

    So.. this is just for production cars i guess? cuz top fuel dragsters can hit 100mhp in 0.8 sec! (that’s right.. not 60.. 100!)

    Holly crap 100mhp in 0.8 sec is a 5,7g’s. It is a concussion for an untrained person!!! Same as falling out of the 3rd floor(5,7m)!!!
