This trick has become almost a "standard procedure" but never the less always nice to watch it especially when BMWs are involved 8)

there was also one involving a 993 C2 and some econobox car with a williams F1 i think, if i remember correctly it was in french by turbo perhaps ... yes, they certainly get boring as these normal cars have no chance against an F1 car, unless it was going backwards in reverse and even then an F1 would have a pretty good chance of winning; in that video with mcrae i was kind of hoping that colin would win in his wrc car, but unfortunately an F1 is way too quick on tarmac

I love seeing those challenges when I get the chance. Strange mix of cars tho... I mean the 1 series and the Williams F1 together makes sense... but why the holden?

[ikon2003]

Mercedes one still sticks out in my mind. Especially as the F1 driver checks his stocks while the other cars are racing around the track - classic.

I'll see what I can do about getting a video of this for you guys, if they play it on TV again tomorrow I will record it and get it on my HD :wink:

[fubo.x]

may be the car's performance is proportionate to the number of people standing next to it. the 1 series had only one guy, the holden had two and the f1 had a small army of six. :D :D :D

any one got the lap time of these cars to verify my theory?

The holden because its australia's premier motorsport and its a good indication how fast an F1 car is too a 600bhp race machine(or taxi :P ).

They seem to do this every 2nd year, it was cool afew years ago but the dude that organises when they leave always gets it wrong, also im walking about on the other side soo unless u on the main straight its quite useless to look at.

[tekwar]

i think these have gotten a bit dull, the F1 always wins.

well actually the 1 series won most of the challenges. In fact in the 3 races i saw it, it had won.
