Horst von Saurma ran it at Nürburgring in 7.34 in cold weather (40F) and 1.04 at Hockenheim. It set speed records on both tracks.
Not bad for a car appointed "worst handling supercar" ...

i am going by what tiff said, i trust his judgements because he is very qualified in his field. of all the years he has been racing, from porsche cup, british touring car, lemans, i dont think there would be many cars that he hasnt drove, so i believe he would know what a supercar drives like. he did not say t had crap handling but compared to other supercars it was the worse. but compared to sports cars i would say it would **** all over them.
i dont know who Horst von Saurma is, can you right up some stats of his or a link to his history.
