Featured cars:
Lamborghini Gallardo
Ferrari 360 Modena F1
Porsche 911 Turbo Tiptronic X50
Honda NSX Type R
Honda NSX Type S
Nissan Skyline GT-R



The gallardo is being driven to its limits and shakes off the NSX on the straights but in corners and at braking it's way less than a NSX-R. Gallardo has wonderfull sound though! Porsche turbo tip X50 was quite dissapointing. Cool spin with the NSX type-S :D

Greetings,

Oh man, tiptronic that says all.

IMO tiptronic is a shame in an Porsche.

Looked more like the guy in the Gallardo was cruising, rather than going to the limit...

...American Magazines run track tests like those? :confused: :vhmmm:

Those tests show MUCH more about how a car really performs than the objective performance numbers ever could.

Yea, right, shifting every gear almost on the redline and cornering like this is cruising...

some people just can't accept that a rather cheap NSX almost have almost beaten a Gallardo :-)

Yup the Gallardo driver was really givving it's best. The NSX-R is simply an unbelievable fast car, with only 280bhp!. Wouldn't call it cheap though...will set you back around 125.000€.

He was taking his hand off the wheel, waving, hollering, missing the shift because he was looking out the side window. He didn't even use the full width of the track like all the other guys. Ah, well, one sees just what one wants to see I guess. :360:

I couldn't see all the videos so I can't judge.

All I know is that Best Motoring has a thing of letting japanese cars perform really well... ;)

Fab5,

I feel the same about the tiptronic, believe it or not the gearbox is sourced from Mercedes, who apprantly have one of the best auto boxes in the world. :harass:

Well, for what I know those NSX's have 280bhp only on paper because of Japanese regulations, just like the Skylines and Supras...

And Gallardo costs a "little" (LOL) more than 125.000€, that's why I called the NSX "cheap" :applause:

Yeah it works like this.... the guy who puts these wonderfull vids online, puts them on his server for 5-6 days and then he puts up another one. So you have to be quick to have them!
