What we can extrapolate is that you are possibly the most one dimensional individual ever to grace Pistonheads.
Are you, in fact, Mr Koenigsegg himself?
Deja vu. No, I am not as I stated the last time I got attacked for doing the unthinkable act of proposing that the P1 could use a e-diff and that Koenigsegg's business was insulated from it due to their low volumesAre you, in fact, Mr Koenigsegg himself?

but we do have a few confirmed McLaren employees among the midst who happily fires on the mob so let me return the favor:
Are you per any chance a McLaren employee?

Makes good old 300bhp look like a perfectly sane, rounded individual ;-)
What supercar should I buy? That'll be a 1987 Chevy Suburban.
What's the best car for my elderly granny? That'll be a Corvette.
What's the quickest way to get to Singapore from London? That'll be a Ford Mercury.
PH is a far worse place for the departure of 300. Hugely entertaining and frighteningly logical in many regards.

What he said
Tommy! Tommy! Tommy! I expected better from you on this. To try and compare these cars like this is so open to error as to be laughable and you know this. Nothing of meaning can be extrapolated from this video. Also K'segg has failed to proclaim a time. If they are in full attack mode which is what you appear to be indicating here then where is the big "We have broken the Ring lap record" announcement.
One corner on a track with as many as the Ring has indicates nothing
Now we have a party. Though I feel like I've proven you wrong too many times to even offer a serious response to your "theories" at this point. After all you're the guy clinging to a Huayra Top Gear record set on slicks and scoffed at the One:1 when the news broke. Tommy! Tommy! Tommy! I expected better from you on this.

And I specifically wrote that the Koenigsegg driver was being overly cautious which is very apparent in the raw footage. I don't ask for much but you could take the time to read through the OP and click the links before commenting.
And yes, you can certainly extrapolate a ton from this.
Mate, proven me wrong!!! Please get your facts streight.As for the Huayra Top Gear record if you had bothered to do your research you will have seen that I happily conceded to Matt33 on that matter when he produced conclusive evidence to back his statement. And for the record I was looking for clarification of his statements which he provided. So I humbly back down. You might want to try it yourself sometime

Surely there isn't. That's from their record attempt and you wont find a faster footage. Feel free to compare with the one where it stays planted but isn't nearly as quick.

They are forced to be this close to the limit to be even remotely fast.
Yep, it was all PR. I just made it all up. The P1 wasn't much faster than a 335d (mapped).http://gfycat.com/ThriftySelfishArachnid

It was lazy journalism and you know it. ;-)
