What the hack is a dog ring??.

Dog ring is nothing but a ring with the gears or "dog teeth" on the inside. Like the bottom part here:

But in the case of Zonda R, I am guessing the term they really wanna use is a "dog box". They have bigger spacing in the gears like this:

They don't have any synchromesh mechanism and you can upshift without clutch if you can manually match the revs. Racing cars have been using them for ever. They are not smooth or quite, but really quick if you know what you are doing.

^Kick ass..it has some robotisized synchro system aswell..maybe that takes care of the rev matching..

PS
I dont expect the new pagani to have such fast gearbox, its to brutal.. but lets see..they always surprise..

Came across this image with an interesting title. It certainly look accurate enough to be the real thing.

^^^while that looks like what the LP700-4 will look like based on the details from spy pics, it looks too PSed to be real.

 

[bum-man]

The front is too much, even for a Lamborghini.

Came across this image with an interesting title. It certainly look accurate enough to be the real thing.

This is it...its almost 100% but few details are missing for example the roof tilts inward in the centre of the car and the
lights details.. other than that this how the LP 700 looks like..

It's very small resolution, but if you look carefully the roof does indeed tilt.

Wow..that looks very sharp..as in a knife sharp.. like you could cut yourself on it..
wouldnt want to cross the road with one of these on the road..
would chop ur leg like a samurai sword..haha

Lamborghini reveals images of Murcielago replacement's suspension

Geneva 2011 - Murciélago successor introduces pushrod suspensions in series production for the first time

• New V12 super sports car with pushrod suspension for race-car precision
• Detailed lightweight engineering concept with double wishbone suspension and carbon ceramic brake system
• Unique 'motorsport' feel combined with long-distance comfort

Sant'Agata Bolognese, 24th January 2011 – The new Lamborghini V12 super sports car which will debut at the upcoming Geneva motorshow will feature an innovative and highly sophisticated suspension concept. The pushrod spring and damper concept was inspired by Formula 1 and tuned perfectly to meet the needs of a high-performance road-going vehicle. Together with aluminum double wishbone suspension and a carbon ceramic brake system, this lightweight chassis is another element of the unique technology concept in Lamborghini's new flagship model.

An extremely precise, indeed razor-sharp, driving feel accurately describes the soul of the newest and most powerful super sports car ever to bear the sign of the bull. This includes a steering system that can think its way through a bend adhering to the perfect line, a suspension that masters the ideal balance between race-car feel for the road and plenty of comfort for ramping up the miles, and lateral stability that ensures absolute safety even at the very highest speeds.

Pushrod suspension derived from motorsport

With its phenomenal engine output of 515 kW / 700 hp and its comparatively low vehicle weight, the new V12 super sports car from Lamborghini blasts its way to the very highest speeds. The most important characteristic of the new suspension is its design in line with the pushrod principle – inspired by Formula 1. The spring/damper elements are not located on the wheel mounts, but connected inboard to the bodyshell structure. They are transversely positioned: under the windscreen in the front and close to the engine in the rear. Pushrods and relay levers / rockers transmit the forces from the wheel mounts to the spring/damper elements.

Responsive handling characteristics at all speeds

This solution offers a whole series of impressive benefits: due to the combination of the double wishbone and pushrod arrangement, wheel control and damper remain separate from each other. As a result, handling is more responsive and easier to manage at all speeds, while rigid connection to the chassis also improves the precise and spontaneous reaction of the springs and dampers. As a result, spring stiffness can be notched back a little – comfort increases, while precision remains. On the front axle, the shock absorbers are equipped with a hydraulic lifting system, which enables the front end of the super sports car to be lifted by 40 millimeters at the touch of a button, simplifying its ability to negotiate minor obstacles.

Systematic lightweight engineering in aluminum and carbon fiber

Aluminum and carbon fiber are also the most important lightweight engineering materials on the chassis. The entire suspension system, including upper and lower control arms, wheel mounts and relay levers are made from forged aluminum alloy. The large-diameter discs on the high-performance brake system, on the other hand, are made from lightweight and extremely hard- wearing carbon ceramic composite material. On the front axle, the ventilated discs measure no less than 400 millimeters in diameter, with braking force delivered via six cylinder calipers. On the rear axle, 380 millimeter diameter discs are used in combination with four cylinder calipers. The parking brake on the new Lamborghini top model is electrically powered.

Steering forms the sensitive connection between driver and automobile

The hydraulic steering on the Lamborghini V12 forms the highly sensitive connection between the driver and the super sports car, which runs on 19-inch wheels clad on 255/35 tires at the front and 20-inch rims on 335/30 tires at the rear. Steering Gear foresees 3 different servotronic characteristics managed by drive select mode. After all, not every day is the same and the "corsa" (race track) setting can perhaps sometimes be a little too demanding.

Probably...but this car hasn't been Officially unveiled yet. I'm sure we'll have the correct name for the Official thread.
