    Yes and a whole bunch more this April May as a friend of mine wanted to collect his 458 from the Factory and was told he had to wait.

    20 times actually, he won the senior TT in 2013 after Michael Dunlop had won the previous 4 races.

    Riight, Kimi just goofing off. You need to add smiley faces at the end of a joke.

    The P1 diff is not the same as the early 12c's. You need to update your information.

    Kimi obviously made a mistake. He was probably playing with the switches. At least that's what he said after his F1 crash.

    I love watching TT races. Is there any other race, bike or car that is anywhere near as intense? Even a distant second, I would be interested in.

    If anyone knows, please let me know.

    The Ulster Grand Prix. Similar to the TT, but closed road circuit and group racing (not a staged time trial).

    A Porsche 918 "chases" down a 911 Turbo on the ring.

    Why is it frustrating?
    Because Ferrari engineers are behind the times against a car $100k less than 458's?

    That's a GT2RS in that video I believe. Lighter weight. Larger turbos. 2 wheel drive.



    Without reading the last 25 pages had Mac released a video and Time yet?

    In the mclarenlife forum is posting a video of a mclaren P1 doing a hot lap in the top gear track, obviously the car could do a better lap time, but I am a bit disappointed because the time is aprox 1:15 but with a running starting, so the time should be aprox 3 seconds worse with a static starting. The car looks fast but isn't a car of another planet like some magazine drivers want appears it.

    Earlier laps of Dunsfold which have also been posted to YT were done in 1:12-1:13. Some things to keep in mind while you benchrace these times against others - this is happening with two people in the car, a moderate amount of fuel on board and the drivers were not demonstrating full 10/10ths with these passengers on board. Here's one of the earlier recordings of a customer preview lap - some time was clearly lost at the Hammerhead in this one:

    Yes, definitely Jay Leno's car. He'll have the car soon, I am sure. The video we all look forward to is probably just a couple of weeks away.

    He wanted it to match the production car that was revealed at the Geneva Motor Show in 2013.
