Formula One champ Schumacher vs. a fighter jet

I stole this story from another forum, and I just love the pic that went with this...

 

thats cool but it looks chopped.

 

that's a real story, I saw it on CNN yesterday...I wish there was a video d/l link

 

I saw that the othe rday too. Its real sweet IMO.

 

In the wet to boot!
I want to see them try it on a dry track!

 

wasn't there another thing with an f1 car and a jet? but those aren't the same cars... i dunno...

and fuck sch00maker. i want Probst back

 

it's real.


it was about a year ago that they pitted the new Viper prototype (srt10) against an F16 Viper, the SRT10 beat out the jet in the 0-60, 1/8th, and 1/4 mile but the jet took it in the end in the 1/2 mile.

 

there is another video out there where a f1 races a f18 but I dont know who it is

 

only in italy.

crazy fucking ferrari fans

 

i used to have the vid of a jet racing a F-1. it was gay, i mean u gotta remember those jets are heavy and take a whileto get up to speed, but needless to say the f-1 owned the fighter jet...

 

but the fighter jet has bombs and shit...

die die die!

 

Screw all that....

Here's what I'm all about.......

Taking a Mustang on sideways and backwards......
It don't get any better than this...

 

This has been done many times. Here is a vid of a CART racing an f18.

It says f1 but how ever made the link does not know the diffrence.


They did a smilar test with the lafaritdafdasdfxzc? (sp) twin turbo (or was it sc?) corvette vs a boing jet. Same results, vette won (8.9 second quarter mile) then after that, by by vette.

 

Funny thought...these comparisons....

After the cars max out at 150-240 MPH's...the jets remain to keep going until they hit Mach 3 +........and sometimes...they never max out......

Unless they hit the V-max switch

 

coming from someone whos brother flys F15s...

he said his fully stock Stealth R/T "aka 3000GT VR4" felt about the same as a jet only differance is the jet keeps going and going and going where the car after 80mph or so stops making that hold you in the seat feeling the jet just keeps it up

I still can't figure out why so many tv shows and newspapers put wow race car VS jet!!! viper VS jet!!!! F1 VS jet!!!! who gives a fuck its been done before I think they even had a jet powered 18wheeler VS jet.....

I think they should put a car on a aircraft carrier and see if it can keep up with an F14 =)

 

do you mean Lingenfelter Corvette??

 

thats the one.

 

at LUke AFB here in AZ, they had a viper race an f16. was pretty cool, but the viper killed it off the line

ithink they said the f16 did teh 1/4 in 3-4 seconds.. can;t remember for sure though..

 

1/4 mile in 3-4 sec? haha not from a dead stop

 

ehh, maybe he beat the viper by that much? i don't know, 3 seconds was in what the annoucer was saying somewhere.. it was a year ago and i just got off a 13 hours shift moving christmas tree's around all day, gimme a break
