New SEAT Leon Supercup

[Guest]

""Drivers taking part in the 2006 León Supercup will be taking the wheel of a new car, the performance and features of which will enable the event to retain its status as the fastest single-make touring car race in Europe. The new León Supercup is the most powerful León racing version in the SEAT range, the 185 hp TFSI, on which SEAT Sport has carried out intensive work with the aim of producing a car with features that are as similar as possible to those of the cars participating in the WTCC.""

It looks really nice!! The wheels, the bumpers, the rear spoiler....everything!! :o :shock:

With 280bhp it will be extremely fast for sure. Only for good drivers :P

Yes, the car is pretty cool: those rims, the big rear wing :shock: , the yellow colour. I think is prettier than the former racing model.
It must be very very fast on track, we will see next year.

Believe be - there are some very bad drivers in the Seat Leon Cup

I believe you, but if you have money.... you can do whatever, included drive fast cars. :roll:

On the Megane Cup you can also see some drivers that seems to be there only because they have a big wallet... :?

Do you mean they do not know racing, and they're there only because of their money?
I suppose there are lots of people in lots of racing meetings that do the same. :roll:

Yes - it's more normal than you think :bah:

For instance, in the last race in Barcelona this weekend, a guy was doing 2'13" in a Porsche 996 GT3 Cup while I usually do 2'08" with the Clio :roll: :P

:shock: Is it true? 5 sec more slow than your Clio??? I can't believe it!!!
Dani, your handling in Clio is extremly good or that guy got off.

Inst he mr Joan Olle?.....btw....if a GT3 is able to do 5 seconds slower than the clio in such a quick racetrack as Montmelo is, i dont want to see what it is going to happen in a twisty racetrack as Calafat is (for the people who dont know what kind of racetrack calafat is, its just something similar to Castle Combe in the UK....narrow and many slow bends in it....)

BTW...what kind of racetrack is used in Montmelo when you race because as far as i know the racetrack could be converted into three different racetracks as Silverstone or Nurburgring
