A few years back, I signed up for a ride in one of these.
"2003-2004 season Jordan F1 car with a 750 hp V10 and a curb weight of only 1,410 lbs."
I ended up doing it twice. Once the driver was Didier Theys, and the second time it was Martin Plowman. One of the times, we had just started out, turned the first corner to the first short straight and Didier goosed the gas. I'm a but over 6'2" and was essentially laying down in the car. When he goosed it, I felt the blood rush out of my feet and legs. It was a VERY strange sensation. And that was not from a dead stop with AWD. Still, it was impressive.
