Ten pounds per horsepower makes a vehicle dangerously fast. The 918 would be half that or less.

Check out the Koenigsegg One:1. It has one horsepower per kilogram. There is a Youtube video of an auto journalist in Great Britain who was allowed to take one of the two existing prototypes out on the track. His giddy comment during the test drive - "this makes a Veyron feel sluggish."
