Who cares if you come out of the corner faster, if you still lose the race?

autocross has nothing to do with a circuit, a 4wd car will always have more accelaration in a straight line or after a hairpin

Why is it irrelevant? Because they're all freaking awesome, and I'd kill to have any of them. :)

Just one example, though, of where you're wrong. If you go back to Road and Track's "Ultimate Track Test" from September, you'll see that on the autocross course, the Lotus scored 7th place, behind many heavier cars (including the Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4). On the Streets of Willow course, it scored 9th place. First place? Gallardo LP560-4. The last course, it placed 10th. Average turn in force was 0.96g, compared to the Lamborghini's 1.22g (and the GT2's 1.29g).It's all irrelevant though.

dream car dosent mean it has to cost alot of money, my dream car is a s2000, dont you know anything about tuning and aftermarket upgrades? Put a supercharger in an exige s and all the options and you will get the ultimate street legal track car, look the top gear review of the lotus exige, its 6th place just behind a Gallardo on a wet track, and thats not the S version

wtf am i talking about? im talking about fact that this car is 55-60g? around there..majority of the people can afford it"dream car" means in MY opinion like lambo and veyron and those super cars. something not everyone can afford. but this car....many people can afford itlike even people who own e class price range+, tons of people have the money for it. and i would not consider it "dream car"and where does speed and cornering come in to play? i didnt say this car sucks...

if you knew anything about performance you would no there is nothing better then saving weight in a car, not even 1000hp can compensate for a lightweight car when it comes to cornering, why do you think the fastest cornering vehicules are karts, and that the ariel atom is so good, that and a superb tuned engine, anyways i love lamborghini, they look amazing but they are big and heavy

Look, I love the Elise/Exige. But if you're saying Lamborghinis can't corner, you're very, very wrong. |
