Lets just say that one car charges to 180mph and beyond so fast you think you are in a video game, while the other rules the race track... guess which is which

Wonderful !! Can't wait to see that
My guess : CTR is the most accelerative while the RT12 is track king

Evo has the "green hell" involved

Sounds like an awesome matchup - should be a blast to drive!

Evo is also based in Europe - so if they didn't have the North Loop involved they would be deficient.

Is the RT12 Evo is testing a '1 of 1' flat rainbow silver 750bhp version? And is the CTR a '1 0f 2' AWD model ?

Having the same cars as evo is not a bad starting point, not bad at all. I never would have dreamed that you guys make so good magazine in the first strike.

Thumbs up, keep up the good work.

besides, thats just the texas branch, I'm sure we wont carbon clone evo's parade, nor was this "on purpose" but rather the cars have been in the "que" for quite some time.
