Looking on the opinions expressed, it would be interesting to know which car is considered the first supercar overall. 1930-s ...

That's probably a mistake. They listed more realistic 250 lb-ft here in the brochure:

Could you tell, where did you get that 620 Nm torque number? I believe it's to much for 1,5l supercharged ...

It happened yet again... Looks like GM dealership services just hate vettes

7:56 wasn’t a Honda claim, it was Gan-San Kurosawa Best Motoring) In theory the factory laptime could have been even ...

If you take the M3 CSL as a benchmark, keep in mind that the driver was Horst von Saurma, who, ...

Thank you for your opinion, but I think we're talking about different things. You're referring to the magazine's laptime, while ...

We can try to console ourselves with the fact that the gap between Mercedes and Ferrari will be smaller in ...

Unfortunately, I've never driven MX-5, but I've driven Fiat 124, which is essentially the same thing. In my opinion the ...

When you say Advan A048, you're probably referring to the BM test at Tsukuba. However, these tires were not OEM ...

If we are talking about original early 2000-s cars, Murcielago had shorter gearing for more aggressive start, but after 80 ...

That's for sure. I remember an article in US magazine from that time, where they tested this car on a ...

A friend sent me the magazine in PDF. If you wish, I can send it to your email.

Ferrari has an incredible ability to ruin everything when everything is going in their favor. I would rather bet on ...

Tires have almost no effect on peak speeds (very little). My guess, given the small difference in mass and power, ...

The article mentions several times that the grip conditions on the track were worse this year than usual. For example, ...

Thank you for the interesting information! Do you have any comparable data about the measured aerodynamic characteristics with a moving ...

People are probably partly misled by the QR article, as it describes the car equipped with Cup 2 tires. This ...

I haven't unfortunately

Nice bunch of laptimes from Czinger!

I'll look what I can find. In AMuS supertest they posted Zonda 7.3 torque graph. Also I think I've seen ...

Yes

Thank you for the info! Ota was a competent driver judging by his track record, so the result should be ...

Well, maybe so. Let's see the comparison when we get more results!

So you think that herr Bergmeister in 992.1 TS couldn't get a laptime less than 7:12?

Not bad. But they are a bit disingenuous when they say it is 14 seconds faster than prefacelift version, because ...

Well, it's possible. I haven't delved into it too much.
