One thing that I find odd is bearing in mind the CGT has a lesser PTW ratio than a few cars on here, he has trouble putting down the power in the bone dry around the streets... :?

Please feel free to flame me if I've missed out on the patently obvious, but the Snot requires some thuggery to act in that manner, and it doesn't have the weight of a V10 over its erse, although I suppose it does have a rotund dundonian doing similar service :roll:

Buckets of torque and a grabby carbon clutch though. Torque-to-weight ratios would be a better comparison.

Hey Shooomer

Should we try and re-create this down princess street in your GT3?

Sure watching a few Burberry caps fly off in shock would be far funnier!

We might need to fashion you a motorsport zaust first though :wink:
