With the massive V8 torque I was just expecting these results... the problem is that due to a 1000# disadvantage in curb weight the Rover won't be as good on a road course... go figure around 15-20s slower around each lap on the Green Hell (btw, I'm using Hell in reference to a place, not using it as a swear word you karenized Americans)
