Because it doesn't exist anymore

ACR is competitive because it can effectively use the power it has.

Not an argument.

Why does /o/ keep comparing cars made specifically for track with cars made for normal roads?

I am sorry for being off topic but this really bugs me lately. The ACR with anything, the Corvette with the Radical and so on, and so forth.

Is this some kind of fetish? Or do you think that track cars can be driven on normal roads just like a hatchback? If this is the case let me break it to you: track cars are awful on normal roads. Ride is back braking, you are scared of speedbumps, and most of them have very little isolation and rattle.

It doesn't need it

>>16056801
Are you new here?

Ferrari cried that the Viper was too fast.

>>16056741
Because the sound of an n/a V10 would be ruined by cancerous forced induction

>>16056810
>more power =/= faster
You're saying it would be slower with more power?
>power band
Proper turbocharging will increase torque down low and improve power at the top end, not every turbo setup is a fucking single 88mm turbo that makes 5 million bhp for 300rpm right at the top of the rev range
>reliability
fair argument
>cost
fair argument
>fuel needs
yeah I'm sure fuel efficiency was a real concern when they decided to continue using the 8.4L V10 engine
>cooling needs
literally not a problem

>>16056855
>Putting more power to the ground comes with all kinds of handling issues that would need to be resolved.
>LOL no, this is incorrect.
>efficiency=/= needs stupid. They would need larger injectors, larger fuel pumps possibly, bigger gas tank etc. They sell production cars not shit box hack jobs
>cooling a turbo car takes no extra testing or changes to the cooling system
How bad at cars are you?

>>16056855
Holy fuck you MUST be a bus rider. And I don't mean it in a meme way. You MUST be that guy that claims to know his shit but never owned/drove a car and talks shit out his ass because he played NFS growing up.

No point.
it already slaughters everything under a million and turbos suck ass.

>>16056887
Literally nothing you just said is factually accurate.

>>16056912
Nice personal attacks, are you going to provide an argument any time soon?

>>16056920
lol okay Jr.

I could try to explain to you why turbocharging the car would require a lot of work for the engineers but you wouldn't understand.

To put it simply if they add turbos most of the engine and drivetrain will need to be reworked, the aero and cooling will need to be reworked, the suspension geometry will most likely need to be reworked.

So a lot of time and money spent for the car to be a second or soo faster around laguna. Sometimes it's just not worth it.

its just some busrider ford fanboy shitposting and spamming anime faces, ignore him

>>16056951
Im glad you took the time to answer I was just going to ignore this moron. He thinks turbos don't make a car hotter and that power = faster around a track.

or trigger his ocd :^)

>>16056855

Look at this video you filthy nigger: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=faK1RCiTM6g

Less power would have been beneficial in this lap, since the thing is fucking struggling to get the power to the road helplessly.

I know you can't really compare a Turbo I4 850HP car to a Turbo V10, but it's just an example of how sometimes less power is faster.

>>16056741
>Why doesn't Snek have forced induction?
because it can only have so much aero and sticky rubber before its no longer street legal :^)

>>16056915
>one is street legal the other is a purpose built non street legal race car
lol

>>16058098
It'd probably get a better lap time if it didnt stall

>>16056741
Apparently it just wouldn't fit. Also Ferrari might get mad, because, you know, >FCA
