You are retarded, but Mike's snarky reply wasn't very helpful.

If you look closely, you'll see where the axles bolt right underneath the trans.

It's the same layout as a rear-engine porsche, essentially.

[balactm]

2.4L v-8 with a supercharger??? guess that's how the weight distribution doesn't need to be changed much.... that's gonna be unreal on track. and justin - what do you mean they're being assembled at VIR? are they building atom's at VIR for rentals or something?

Pagani Zonda R on the Monza circuit- Video
lol at the guy wipping off the drivers shoes




The Zonda R was designed from scratch, with only 10 percent of Zonda F components being carried over. It features a 739 horsepower 6.0L V12 from MercedesÔÇÿ AMG division, derived from the CLK GTR race car. Power will be dealt with via PaganiÔÇÖs first paddle-shift gearbox.

The wheelbase has grown by 47mm, the overall length by 394 mm and the track is increased by 50mm. The bodywork and aerodynamics have been modified to offer maximum downforce. Much of the Zonda R is constructed of carbon-fiber and titanium mix, resulting in just a 2,360 pound curb weight.

That power combined with super light weight means the Zonda R can accelerate from 0-60 in 3 seconds, on its way to a top speed of 233 mph.

The project began at the request of an Italo-American customer, enthusiast and proud owner of three Zondas. Pagani will build 16 examples of the Zonda R, although only 15 will be up for sale (one example will be kept by Pagani). Only the super-wealthy need apply, with the track day toy set to list from $1.8 million.
