Top speed 220 MPH (on one actual track 250-260 in a straight line), 2.4 litre v8's revving to 20, 000 rpm, braking at 5 g's (190mph to zero in 3.5 seconds), acceleration at 1.4g's (0-60 in 1.9sec, 0-190mph in 8.4 sec), they also turn at 5g's (without banked corners). The spoilers produce so much downforce the car can drive upside down at 70mph. The steering wheel has 23+ buttons controlling everything from diff lockup, traction control, engine braking, air fuel mix, brake bias, to launch control. Ferrari alone spends almost 450 million dollars a year on their team budget (enough to run 30 nextel cup cars for an entire year). There's a reason it's called formula number 1
