Allegedly, in the wet, the SLR is faster. Perhaps due to ESP and/or a softer suspension set-up?

Two very different cars...
SLR an autoban cruser
CGT a street legal racecar

Gorden Murray did a great job singlehandedly designing the SLR! I had the opportunity of hearing him speak at a symposium last year at Art Center College of Design.

Gordan Murray also said it is difficult to design a car AFTER the boss hands you the artists pictures and says "make this car really good"... Gordan did a review of the Bugatti Veryon in road & track or Car & driver....it was very good & he was very frank about the SLR, original Mclaren & the Veyron! Great Article!
