This was our amateur effort.. we will improve as budgets and experience increase. Thank you for the feedback, it's very appreciated.

Thx for doing this and making available. So damned surprised about two things:
  • The Pagani, never would have guessed...
  • The company that shall remain nameless is beyond pathetic and another reason i would never own one or be associated with a brand that what make an effort to prevent facts and reviews from the general public.

Yep, this says it all. We all know which company that is. (Just ask Chris Harris.) Doesn't say much for their confidence in their cars, despite their multiple F1 constructor's championships, 70 years of legendary road cars, etc. It's such a shame that they're so thin-skinned and defensive.

Thanks for the revelations about the Pagani--there's not enough good content out there about these cars, probably because they're so rare. Well done!

Nice! nothing like paying a million to be someone's bitch just for that sweet exclusivity.

Puts a nice salt an otherwise fantastic set of videos. Maybe leave the crybaby out of the next showdown.

We're thinking only about Ferrari. But what if it's McLaren or Porsche? Though it's unlikely to be Porsche anyway. But it's just pathetic, no matter whoever did it. I understand why Ferrari and McLaren didn't agree to test all three cars on Top Gear back in 2014. But why now? Six years later? It doesn't make any sense.

We can't wait to see the second event. And we'd love to see more Huayra laps and tests. Not just the BC, but the regular Huayra too. I'd like to see the regular Huayra going against the Pista or the 720S.

Many people think the Huayra's just a car for the show. I'm glad you've proven them wrong. And we're grateful to you for your efforts to organize such an event.

No, it's Ferrari.

Just finished the third episode. Great stuff. Thanks for taking the time to put this together. For future installments, can you give a brief intro to who's who? Randy and Seth I know, but I'd like to know who everyone else is -- their background/experience. Would help to put their comments in perspective. Thanks again.

What's the big deal? The holy trinity is now 7 years old. Why hide anything now? Nobody really cares about the laptimes of these old cars anymore. Paul Bailey who owns the trinity did the same thing years ago. His P1 used the Trofeo R and won. And the Ferrari was the last. But I don't think anything happened to Paul Bailey.
