The article is pretty interesting.
How come a 2010 GT3 RS with the ultra wide wing generates just 170Kg (375 lbs) of downforce at 186mph? It is twice as much as the 2010 GT3, but...
The Viper ACR (ok it is too much) generates 1,000 lbs at 150 mph. Even the 2005 F430 (no wing) generates 616 lbs at 186mph.
0.1 secs quicker to 100 mph than the 2010 GT3? despite the extra 15Hp and the shorter gears?

Makes you think how important the air under the car is!
