OT - Fast top gear lap
Discussion
This is what I replaced my Monaro with
And yes it is that fast
Straight line speed is good but its when you get to corners that it is really impressive
CSR - have in board areo suspension - think f1 style - and the compliancy over road surfaces is a big move on. They have done cars with more BHP/Tonne but CSR's handling takes it to another level.
And these thing make monaro's seem quiet, ear plugs needed!

The dunsfold track definately flatters lightweight cars - the straights really aren't that long and the corners relatively tight.
also, the track is incredibly bumpy which you can't see from the telly - most supercars being around the 1500kg mark need quite firm suspension and they generally suffer on the bumpy bits.
I'm a big fan of lightweight cars (had elises for years and years) and caterhams are good bang for the buck. But there's something intoxicating about high speed and thats generally a weak point of the high bhp/tonne cars.
