Chris Harris says: "Victory to the McLaren" He also says he drove with "All Systems switched off" Really Chris??? So you didn't bother with "Sport Plus" mode - but chose to test the Turbo in its Pussycat mode rather than in its Tiger Mode. You recorded 0-60 in 3.2 secs and 0-100 in 7.9 vs
the McLaren's 3.7 and 7.6 sec. and declared Victory to the McLaren, Had you used Sport Plus
you likely would have recorded 2.7 and 6.4 Seconds as Car and Driver recorded in their November 2013 Issue. Or, since you had already tested both cars on the track, you might have published the
Lap Times or would they have embarrassed McLaren who were kind enough to lend you their car.
Or had you already consulted www.fstestlaps.com and found that:
On Nurburgring the TTS @ 7:26 was faster than the MC12C4 @ 7:28 as was the GT3 @ 7:25.
And at Hockenheim, the TTS @ 1:08.7 was again faster than the 12C @ 1:09 as was the GT3 @ 1:08
And yet again at Sachsenring the TTS was faster @ 1:32.5 vs the 12C @ 1:33.6 seconds
So Mr. Harris, my question is, if you had configured the TTS correctly and measured actual
Launch Times and Laptimes, would you still have declared "Victory to the McLaren"?

The most "exciting" cars I've driven have always been the least predictable and controllable. That is really not what I'm looking for trying to maintain triple digit speeds on race tracks.
