Some say the Aston Martin DP-100 Concept makes the Gran Turismo 6 racing simulator better than Forza Racing. I’m not that much into gaming, nor a big fan of the DP-100, but I think greatly of the soon-to-debut Vulcan.
Let me explain - the videoclip below is the final teaser of the mysterious Aston Martin Vulcan, before the track-only machine will be presented at the Geneva Motor Show this March. There’s nothing much to talk about this clip except for a number of visually and aurally enticing details.
First and foremost, CHECK OUT THAT HUGE REAR WING! If our eyes aren’t playing tricks on us, the carbon fiber rear wing is wider than what looks like an already wide vehicle. Then there’s the Aston Martin DP-100 Concept-inspired tail lamps, which remind me of optical fiber cables.
As an added bonus, it’s fairly easy to see that the McLaren P1 GTR-rivaling hypercar boasts with side-exit exhausts with a great appetite for spitting flames. Speaking of spitting flames, the DP-100 virtual racer is animated by a twin-turbo V12 that offers “up to 800 bhp.” Compared to it, the Aston Martin Vulcan appears to be powered by a V12 as well, albeit not a force-fed engine.
Mated to a sequential dog transmission, don’t expect the Vulcan to be the spiritual successor of the One-77 because, as noted beforehand, this bad boy won’t be road legal. Look forward for March 3 for further intel and live photos of the Aston Martin Vulcan and the less extreme yet jaw-droppingly gorgeous Vantage GT3.
