Yeah baby, I might not be able to beat you at 0-60, but let's play tug of war.

14000 Nm of torque is nice. You will never know what actualyy moves in case of power-start before you don't mesure the daytime duration.

There isn't a gearbox in the car, that just put the engine on it

Better than the Veyron! And yeah, it doesn't need a gearbox with that much torque, just a strong clutch and an adequate final drive ratio.

and a massive frame for the next roadbump. I want to know how much it will weight? Such a crazy idea. 14.000 Nm over these sweet wheels.
