Funny quote by the McLaren F1 owner:

"May I remind you that the chassis stinks, it has no downforce, and the brakes don't work. But it's got a good engine!"

I suppose it was for the 100 th issue of EVO :D
And it will give us a true comparison with Enzo and CGT's times on the same track/same day with the same driver :!: That's a first !!

As exotic as Enzo, CGT or Macca can be, the most impressive is the SR3, which can be thrown into corners at amazing speed thanks to massive grip and downforce as well as ultra light weight! Must be much fun than the others :D

I don't think, it's .mpeg files. You must go to the Rapidshare page and then you will be able to download them, don't download the link directly :wink:

Well - that's the difference between a road car and a proper racing car! :wink: completely agree... but the vid of the Macca was damn impressive too! wouldn't mind driving that beast myself :wink:

I'd dirve it, crash it and burn it :D

These won't be for the 100th issue that I know of, but there should be some more vids taken on that appearing soon - I'm hoping they put the one up of Roger following the F40 in the dark, it was spitting flames like a mad thing 8)

Just got my subs copy of the 100th issue today, it looks like a corker!

Actually auto motor und sport compared them on an Italian track (near Nardo) quite a while ago (both in the mag and on TV). I posted the link a while back.

At that time, the CGT was about 1 s faster. I'm very interested to see what evo comes up with. That being said, Meaden didn't look very competent driving the Mac F1, especially when you compare this evo video to the one that Top Gear did with Tiff back on the Goodwood circuit many moons ago... So, I'm not sure he is the best driver to compare such high performance vehicles.

Hmm, these vids aren't working right for me, I have sound but no video, does anyone know a good codec for these?

Also, when do we find out which was the fastest?!

You could watch them on the EVO website or download them and play with VLC player, that definately works.
