A050, not really a road tyre

How on earth can it be 26 seconds faster than a Carrera GT? Frankly, I don't believe it.

Race car versus a road car.

All, I can see on it is : 'See 712 horsepower from the Honda F20C 2.2 Litre Turbo'

close enough

the track record is in the region of 1:30 or something similar so I can see it being plausible.

the top fuel S2000 also has mental aero which I can only assume contributes a great deal to its cornering speed.

either way, its bloody impressive for a little 4 pot sports car.

It weighs 1000kg too. but hey theres no way it can be faster than a CGT on road tyres :confused:

Goes some way to explain why it is so rapid

Holy crap.

bhp is good but you can see that CGT has a 300hp+ advantage over a 3.2 NSX and only manages 4s quicker.
What does that car have over a CGT that makes it so fast? A big wing?
Perhaps I underestimate massively what difference a couple of wings can make. To me, 26s is an absolutely huge amount of lap time difference.

Simon · 28 May 2014 at 18:35

I'm confused what you are taking about as you seem to confused the NSX to a race S2000 in the video

The NSX has no wings and who knows conditions/driver etc. plus a CGT is pretty lairy and hardly know for ease to drive on limit and handling. It's probably closer to 330hp too as it's the 3.2

The S2000 is 700hp/ton and running race suspension/tyres and aero. No wonder it's so much faster.

Dude race car!
Half the weight, dog/sequential box, aero, unusable on the road. That is why it's quick!

I passwngered round Spa this weekend in 2:42 that was amazing.

That was the older aero spec, since then its been back in the wind tunnel looking for more downforce
