BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA 600klm/h......

Hmmmmmmmm.. I think I'll take the airborne option.

 

"We've no idea how the Acabion fares in terms of high-speed stability, or whether it can negotiate corners without falling over, particularly in view of the fact that the supplementary rear 'stabilisers' (which look rather like the trainer wheels on my first bike) retract once "walking pace" is exceeded."

Hmm, I think I'll pass.

 

I've done 431 Kph on land - not in a plane - fantastic!

 

Ahh Yes.

 

well, com'n Giovanni, where's the rest of the story ??

 

Really?? Can you please tell us what/where/when

 

Was it in a train? or a elevator?

 

Ahhhhhhhhhhh,you may be onto something there Wog
The simple things first,before we all get too excited

 

obviously the thing leans like a motor bike when those training wheels lift. i like it. shouldn't be too expensive either.

 

Maglev train - Shanghai to Pudong airport.
It does the 38Km in 7 minutes.
Takes about 3 minutes to get to 431, is there for 1 minute, and about 3 minutes to come back to zero.
The best bit is when it runs parallel to the freeway and you are passing cars doing 120 with a speed differential of over 300
The next best bit is when it's sister comes the other way doing the same speed - passing each other takes about a nanosecond and is like a small nuclear explosion!

Great fun

How cool is that?

 

When I was in Europe a couple of years ago we caught the train from London to Paris and I remember watching a plane out the window and it took me a couple of seconds to work out why it looked so slow coming into land. Then I remembered we were already doing something like 180mph. I was waiting for the plane to just drop out of the sky.

 

Yep, I took the same one. The Eurostar I think it's called.

 

Yep that's the one. TGV south of Paris does the same thing.

 

what do you expect its a bugatti,first the veyron then this then they will be saying they built another which can do 800km/h
