Ferrari GTO Evoluzione

[edit]

To the censor that deleted my message in this TALK page. Wikipedia keeps reminding their readers how so few people donate to its "encyclopedic" cause. Of the many reasons, THIS is one of them, there I thought it was considerate to go through the TALK page before anything else, nah... You delete on a whim, without even considering the time a person put-up for writing a comment, dismissively without even saying why, confirming your reputation to be a "just us" club. You're just so despicable. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.53.51.129 (talk) 21:21, 31 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I've checked the recent history and nobody deleted your message. It was moved from the top to the bottom of the page because new message topics customarily are put at the bottom of the page, not the top. You can verify this technique from the dates on the first message within each of the other topics. Also, add a signature by placing ~~~~ at the end of your messages. This helps us keep track of who said what and when they said it.  Stepho  talk  22:33, 31 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Challenger Demon 170

[edit]

You can try hide the truth for a long time, but you won't hide it forever. Some editors are trying to censor the astonishing fact that a V8 ICE motor is still rocking out there. I comprehend your frustration but wiki will bring us the truth. mcg (talk) 13:45, 19 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The manufacturer has made a claim. However, it is in the interests of manufacturers to exaggerate their claims and to sometimes even outright lie about them - better claims lead to more sales. Practically all of the major manufacturers have given in to the temptation at some time. Therefore, we need an independent test. And it must be a stock car, with the same tyres, same brakes, pump fuel and no equipment deleted/added/modified/swapped. Magazines repeating the manufacturer claims do not count. If the claim is true then an independent test will verify it.  Stepho  talk  00:00, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Time decimals precision

[edit]

9.1 means 9.1 s +- 0.1 s since it does not imply 9.10 (could be 9.19 e.g.). So we could can't be sure 9.1 is faster than 9.15 nor slower. In the doubt we should place it behind waiting for more precise measures. gtp (talk) 08:06, 8 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

McLaren F1

[edit]

Why the time spans two columns? Anyway that 229 km/h exit with aspirated engine and estimated 0-100 in 4 s is insane. Incredible engine, it means 100-220 in 6 s. That V12 by BMW is simply infinite. gtp (talk) 20:52, 30 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Rimac Nevera

[edit]

Rimac Nevera and Pininfarina Battista are not the same car. They don't even have the same HP according to Wikipedia.

The Nevera times were independently measured, but car and tire condition were not independently verified so they don't fulfill the list rules. Drachentötbär (talk) 00:26, 1 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Pininfarina Battista

[edit]

Add pininfarina battista, based on rimac nevera in the list of fastest production cars General Phoenix (talk) 19:51, 10 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
