Default XP: Our own South African Track Performance (includes TT & S3) (more)

Our local Mag "Topcar" had a track shootout of 25 cars published in their July 01 issue. Now they have published it on their internet edition, to which I added the Hockenheim lap times I found at www.track-performance.com (hence the edited page is hosted at my site)
The shoutout was done at 4500 ft elevation
Topcar's article is rather interesting as it shows the same car in relation to another performs better, worse or the same, at a different tracks.
Also they used a pro driver and themselves which also gave very different times.
It's a fairly long article so it may take a bit of time to load.<ul><li><a href="http://www.audioimports.com/cars/TopCar/topcar0701.htm">http://www.audioimports.com/cars/TopCar/topcar0701.htm</a</li></ul>
