The car is amazing. I had a TA. This was unreal. Car is so sharp, responds so well, so agile. Still feels like a big Miata. Easy to drive
Fixed it for you

Agreed. Maybe if he didn't see his Viper and buy that cute VW bug, he would have turned a faster time in the ACR :-P

I did a 1:50.18 in a MP4-12C on base Pirelli P-Zero tires (not the Corsa let alone Trofeo).

^no doubt it could be. I haven't been to the track in many months and that was one short session and I'm no pro!

I posted the 12c's time for perspective.

I'm trying to make you feel bad for ditching the TA. What did you do in that again? I thought it was a low 50, which is very impressive.

Thanks Billy. Appreciate that.

Skxf430 yep. I always bust his ***** because I know a few people who would pay for driving lessons and just to have him drive their cars to help set a goal time to reach

Drop me a line. If we can coordinate a day or two where a few guys can all chip in to make it make sense, lets do it.

acr set the c&d lightning lap record at vir in this months issue. was 2nd all time to 918. pretty impressive since I bet its times would beat out the hybrid once batteries depleted in few laps.

anyone know when the 1 of 1 viper build program ends?

Once I understand the final date, it may very well put a fire under my *** to pull the trigger on an ACR-E
