It was an interesting thought program of what engineers could do to a car and make it fast, but only a superhuman could drive it.

Do you mean the Red Bull X2010?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Bull_X2010
It was designed for the Gran Turismo game (now in others) by Adrian Newey, and it's silly fast. 1500hp, super streamlined fan car. 500kph and 8G+ cornering.
It would absolutely kill a driver, but that's what video games are for!

420kph through 130R!
