Dagger GT, a 2000bhp hypercar to shatter every record set by the Veyron
July 3, 2010 | Amit Chhangani
Here's a Dagger to kill the Veyron, and by the look of it, it looks really lethal. The Dagger GT is preparing to lay claim on being the world's fastest, most extreme production car. With a power output of more than 2000 horses and a peak torque output of2700Nm, the Dagger GT is all set to write a new chapter in performance. And the good thing is, that its makers, TranStar Racing, LLC are claiming that this hypercar is not going be fast just in a straight line like the Bugatti. They claim that it's going to create unprecedented records around the race tracks as well, AND will create a new record around the Nurburgring as well. Now that's a lot of claim to make.
Only five such cars will be made in 2011, so super-exclusivity is guaranteed. The car will do a 0-100km/h sprint in 1.5 seconds will will dispose the quarter mile run in less than 7 seconds with an exit speed of more than 360km/h. Now that acceleration is good enough to not just push your eyes into your guts, but also to make them pop out of your behind.
Each of these cars will be carefully hand built and with customizations to suit the taste of the owner. The customers of this incredibly fast car will have three models to choose from – a street-legal comfortable-riding sport model, or a soft-riding, luxurious GT-X model that looks and feels like a million-dollar car, but runs like a bat-out-of-hell. The base price of each such car (Sport model) will be $4,50,000 (close to Rs 2 crore). Now that's not too much money to ask for if this company can deliver what its claiming.
The Dagger GT is based on an exceptional mid-engine concept car, the Corvette Cheetah, created by the brilliant industrial designer, Ivan Luccion. Our consulting lead designer is Phil Frank, designer of the world record-setting Saleen S7 Supercar which recently won the 24 hours of LeMans.
Join the rebellion!
It's time to smile and have fun again! "Extreme" is back! The 2000 hp, 300 mph Dagger GT's design objectives are to be the best-looking, fastest Supercar in the world. This Supercar is being specially designed, very deliberately and explicitly, to break all world records and to bring back the most popular class of race car: the unlimited class which has been regulated, restricted and compromised into extinction. Join the rebellion as we break every rule there is, and break every world record for production Supercars. We will not quit until we achieve these goals:
Top horsepower/torque: 2000 hp/2000 ft lbs (given)
Top Speed: 300 mph, plus
Quarter mile: 200 mph and < 6.7 seconds
0 to 60 mph: < 1.5 seconds
Lap records at: Nurburgring and Virginia International Raceway.
Each Dagger GT will be carefully hand-made by exceptional, enthusiastic craftsmen. Each car will be custom-made to the owner's preferences and desires. You can order: one of three (3) hard-core racing models; a street-legal comfortable-riding sport model, or a soft-riding, luxurious GT-X model that looks and feels like a million-dollar car, but runs like a bat-out-of-hell. We plan to deliver 5 production Daggers in 2011. Each Dagger will be 49-state street-legal if desired by the buyer.
The base MSRP of the Dagger GT-S or "Sport" model is $450,000 plus custom work, if requested. Deliveries are scheduled beginning in the first half of 2011. Production is very limited to maintain exceptional, over-the-top quality and fine craftsmanship. We have 2 more sales to go before we close out our 2011 production allotment of five (5) units. After the first five units are under contract, we will begin negotiating purchase orders for 10 units to be delivered in 2012.

Our consulting lead designer is Phil Frank, designer of the world record-setting Saleen S7 Supercar which recently won the 24 hours of LeMans. Each Dagger GT is custom-made from 100% proven, guaranteed, off-the-shelf racing components and hand-built to the highest standards by experienced, exceptional supercar craftsmen. The car features an over-the-top big block, 2000 hp aluminum, twin turbo 572 multifuel racing engine, routinely built by Nelson Racing Engines. The engine is also "streetable." A custom TranStar/Mendeola 6-speed transaxle geared to 308 mph is also featured. The transaxle is designed to withstand the 2000 foot-pounds of torque delivered by the engine. The Dagger GT also features a high-strength 4130 Chromoly Steel chassis. A space-age carbon fiber body will be fabricated by the aerospace industry.
