Really do have to praise Lamborghini for sticking to N/A screamers. They simply sound amazing.
Indeed. How come other supercar manufacturers aren't doing the same?

Excellent lap and car control.
However, the best driving control I you Dan witness take a look at Tony Pond on the Isle of Man in a Rover 820 turbo vitesse on slicks.
Or JJ Letto at Le Mans unlapping himself in Mac F1 in the rain.

So will this force McLaren and Ferrari to reveal the P1 and La Ferrari times? It'd be interesting to see if they're quicker.
Nah. I don't think Ferrari have ever had any interest in the Nurburgring as a company (someone correct me if I'm wrong) and I don't think McLaren can release the time anymore without looking a bit silly given their "it's too dangerous to release the time" rubbish.

Does anyone know who much impact the reprofiling of the Flugplatz section and the removal of the bump has?
More than enough to make any comparison like this between old times and new ones irrelevant. I've not been there since the change, but people I know report not having to use the brakes there anymore (where previously that used not to be the case in their cars). With any speed carried there going all the way down to SX..... wink
It's definitely faster now as you brake much less but in a high hp car braking is still I think definitely required. I thought the difference was a couple of seconds, ie 2-3 seconds, a friend with almost a thousand laps thought a bit less when we were there last April.

Enjoy the glory while you can it will be short lived.
Shame the press and ring cars will bare no resemblance to customer production cars which is always the Italians problem.
Like I say it was "optimised" for that track time but we all look forward to you posting a sub 7.00 min time in your own car in due course ( sorry typo meant sub 9.00 min )
Road car only for me and you might be surprised how quick I could get it round there Lol laughlaughlaugh

Juno Baz In Juno at how fast Bedford MSV June 2012. Mind you it was so bloody cold and windy only 10 degrees that you would think it was March.

A 1 min 14 sec Lap has put the Juno to the top of the MSV How Fast Leader board.

Many thanks to Ewan and the Juno Team for a great Track Car

A great day was had and we managed between myself and Graham to take the Juno to the top of the How Fast Table.

The Juno put in a great performance as a track car and only registered 83db on drive by which is a true testement to the extra track day silencer,Honda engine and Juno Package.

That close to an SR8?

It must basically be a GT3 race car which probably makes it a useless road car.

He's got half a tank of fuel. Start with a third of a tank. Job done.
