The great Dario[Ferrari test driver extrodinaire] tested the Enzo vs the Mclaren and said the Enzo just cant quite beat the Mclaren...Do a search and you will find it on the web...Anyone that thinks an F50 or F40 can beat the Mclaren is not thinking fully.....Neither one of those cars can approach the accelerative brute force of the Mclaren nor the handling...As great as the F50 and F40 is they are no comparison to the F1....Mclaren did 138mph in the 1/4...That obliterates even the mighty Enzo...How will the F50-F40 keep up?
I saw that BM video...You cant take what you see there as a end all and be all....You have different driver skills involved....They have to avoid each other etc...Its not a true test of what a car can do....In one they had an M3 CSL keeping up with a Porsche GT2[460hp] on the straights...Another they had an NSX[290hp] running with a Murcielago[585hp]...On a crowded track everyones bunched up giving the illusion of a closely matched cars...A true test would be same day, same driver attacking a roadcourse in one car after the other. No one blocking you from taking the best lines around the track..Top Gear has the right idea witht he STIG...
BTW the F1 LM streetcar will annihilate any of the hyperexotics...It is the GOAT....Greatest Of All Time....
EDIT: heres the link talking about Dario vs the Mclaren.....The track was slightly downhill and the Enzo still couldnt beat the Mclaren's numbers....This page used to contain more dont know what happened...
