Zonda OFFICIAL: 2007 Pagani Zonda R


Pagani's first model, the Zonda, is powered by a mid-mounted DOHC V12 engine manufactured by Mercedes-Benz's AMG division. The car's design was inspired by jet fighters and the famous Sauber-Mercedes Silver Arrow Group C cars, and features several unique design elements, including its circular four pipe exhaust system.
^yep.. lol..:D
both for the engine.. and the driver:D


vs. weight and G loads witch peak in cornering and braking it won't be as extreme as F1 racers. The only other people subjected to such forces as F1 drivers in their cars are astronauts in the their shuttles.
Normally, not even fighter pilots are subjected to such punishment.

An 1800 HP engine is still not extreme enough. :D :D :D
 
Not really.

For example the BMW 2 litre inline 4 used in the 2002 was developed into the Formula 1 1.5 Turbo witch could output at peak ~ 1800 HP, 1400 in qualification and ~ 1200 in actuall races. And by that time it was 20 years old.

It is no miracle, it is engineering, extreme engineering.

And to those guys I :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown:

That' called Turbo power;)
And the stress on the tiny engine is why they only ran it at full capacity in qualifying and didn't last many races.

Yes I know, but my point was that engine was old.
Also I love the NA V10 from Formula 1 the most. Reving at over 20 000 RPM and producing up to 1000 HP from just 3 litres of displacement, with (almost) seamingless gearboxes.
Magnificent. :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown:

Now back on the Zonda R. So much F1 language, I love it.
 
Who doesnt:D
I loved those engines too.

N/A is the way. I still wonder if Pagani will have a turbo on their next model, I really don't hope so.
 
wow this is very very BAD news..
i showed the car to vonbraun ( The R) at the show..
he told me that he belives pagani will only present the project at geneva and not the car..

i thought he was talking BS..

well look at this.. i sure hope there is a car along with this..:

Babelfish:
In the Zonda R (in Geneva still as 1:4-Modell) are straight times ten per cent of the parts of the Zonda F, which makes R its own, new model. Were taken over the forged suspension from Avional, a high-strength aluminum alloy, the sequenzielle six-gear shift, the Monocoque from carbon as well as the plastic aviation tank with four fuel pumps. For the realization of the project the support of Mercedes AMG was decisive, where the winding up V12-750-PS-Maschine with dry sump lubrication and low emphasis comes. The HP maximum lies close with 8.000 routes, the maximum torque amounts to 710 Newtonmeters.

German (maybe someone can translate better):
Im Zonda R (in Genf noch als 1:4-Modell) stecken gerade mal zehn Prozent der Teile des Zonda F, was den R zu einem eigenständigen, neuen Modell macht. Übernommen wurden die geschmiedete Federung aus Avional, einer hochfesten Aluminiumlegierung, die sequenzielle Sechsgangschaltung, das Monocoque aus Karbon sowie der Kunststoff-Luftfahrttank mit vier Kraftstoffpumpen.

Ausschlaggebend für die Realisierung des Projektes war die Unterstützung von Mercedes-AMG, wo die hochdrehende V12-750-PS-Maschine mit Trockensumpfschmierung und niedrigem Schwerpunkt herkommt. Das PS-Maximum liegt bei 8.000 Touren an, das maximale Drehmoment beträgt 710 Newtonmeter.

PS
That engine looks heavily reworked:D
 
I had just read the same news on Autodromes site.. It does infact looks as if we will not a real car, just a scale model.

That's pathetic ...

Thanks for the pictures though :D :usa7uh:
 
yep i guess we missunderstood it all then
ohh well
still someone needs to take pics of that dark blue Zonda F:D

Zonda R: More info on Pagani's Ferrari FXX fighter

Italian automaker Pagani has released several new lifelike illustrations of its forthcoming Zonda R, a track-specific version of its Zonda supercar. The car was first announced earlier this year, but only crude sketches were released.

The new coupe was designed with one goal in mind: "the ultimate performance at the racetrack without any implications of rules, except for safety," the company said. It is expected to compete against the Ferrari FXX.

The Zonda R was designed from scratch, with only 10 percent of Zonda F components being carried over. It features a 750 horsepower from Mercedes' AMG division, derived from the CLK GTR race car.

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.

The project began at the request of an Italo-American customer, enthusiast and proud owner of three Zondas. It's not known how many Rs Pagani will build, but each car is expected to cost over $1.5 million.

I don't know what to say here, simply brutal. Looks like something from outer space.
