Given all the combinations and permutations as to what is the next logical step
re a Trakcar, Eccentrics decided to try and help with the decision.

IMHO GT2 needs a proper driver.. it should have blown the doors of the scud and RS

Forgot to mention all cars are stock except GT3 RS about 150 lbs lighter than stock.

On a longer straight I'm very sure the GT2 would be in front, but by how much remains to be seen.

Gearing has a lot to do with the result when testing in a short drag race. One less shift in the RS perhaps?

unfortunately, your humble opinion is wrong

thanks for vid esh, the gt2 is the quickest of the three and really stretches its legs after 215km/h. the scud is a touch quicker than the 3.8 rs. all races started in 1st gear.

cheers.

You know, this is my one day I will own a GT2RS fantasy. Theoretically it would be white.

I'm told by evil spirits that a GT2RS can be tuned to minimal lag but can kill scuds.. And they are selling for 60k off....

Haha, I know what you mean. Heineken brown bottle is pefection, green bottle is **** only Americans could drink

never seen the brown btl heineken, only green..... -green heineken imported from nl is not bad compared to the one they brew here under licence....they did the same with grolsch.
as for american beer - mainly bud is sold here, and samuel adams.
fosters is aus worst beer, nobody here drinks it.

every country exports it's worst beer. amazing really. (except for belgium, maybe?)
