I now present to you, from left to right: !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! , !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! , !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! , !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! , !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! and !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! (not pictured because PicMonkey wouldn't make me fit six pictures). Together, they make over 5,000 horsepower. They also make enough downforce to equal the weight of all of Oppositelock's moderators and admins combined.

They are not street-legal; they're track-only specials.
They are not even cars.
They are weaponized masses of titanium, carbon fiber, aluminum, and liquids. Jet fighters on a sky of asphalt, governed by gravity, wind, and the lines of the world's most demanding tracks: Silverstone, Imola, Nurburgring, Spa, Assen, Monaco, and Dunsfold ( wait, what?! ). Tanks, with Michelin Pilots and Pirelli Zeros for treads, roll cages for armor, and multiple exhaust pipes for main guns, shooting fire instead of HEAT rounds to anyone who dare draft and attempt a pass. They are battleships capable of speeds up to 220 mph, 2-3 g's of lateral acceleration, and turning a mortal Opponaut into either a ball of meat or deity (or turn a mortal Opponaut into a ball of meat AND deity).
And still there is one marque that hasn't dropped their own weaponized hypercar. Or a sequel to their old weaponized hypercar.
Pagani, the Powers are calling. Your Rivals are waiting. Make the Huayra R.
But I'm having Mr. Glick's car. Because it's cheap. And race-ready from the lot.

I love the P1. If I somehow find millions of pounds I'd buy one and DD it. Jay Leno put a few thousand miles on his in a few weeks and said it's an excellent daily. The track special would make no sense to me though, I couldn't even get 50% out of a road going version nevermind an even harder one.

Which is why I recommend Glick's car. Cheaper to buy, own and run among the six, race-ready, and wouldn't really pop in a crowd of 918's.

I just can't get around the looks of Glicks car. Also having the cheap one will make me look silly in front of my rich guy asshole friends, in their crystal Veyrons.

But those guys and their crystal Veyrons are just mere mortals. If you own Glick's car, you will be Hercules. Half man, half god. Believe me, they'll be the ones that would look silly.

We'll see when I get one as a winter beater. Need to keep the salt off my 250 GTO.
