Default BAC Mono vs P1

Despite the P1's silly straightline speed the BAC's driver does a good job thru the corners.

There's a GT3 in there somewhere I promise

The BAC Mono driver seems very good,except I think he's pushing too hard towards the end of the video. He was very close to losing it and that would've ended up bad.

I think the Mono has nothing in the way of artificial driver aids. The McLaren on the other hand, a total oaf can drive one and look like a hero. (speaking from experience with a 12C, I have not driven a P1)

And for the price, you could get 8 or 10 Monos, just in case you did crash one!

And if you can get a P1 might as well update to a Huayra for a little bit more.

Salt vs. Pepper. The Mono driver is good, the P1 driver not so much. The Mono is an incredible car and so is the P1. Allan

If I'm spending million dollars for a new car, that car's name starts with a P and ends with an A, and it's not Porsche. All of these P1, 918, or Laferrari feel too much like academic exercises than driving instruments.

The Mono is cool though.

The P1 is fast as hell. Look at the way it pulls away out of the corners despite being so slow in the corners.
