    "Had a great couple of hours at Atco today. Managed a best of 10.275 @ 135.21 on a 1.672 60' time. Backed it up with a 10.422 @ 135.4 on a 1.789 60' footer and a couple of 10.5's and 10.6's."

    Only had a video of the 10.5. That's pretty damn fast and quick for a 570hp, RWD car on 285 rear tires.

    Fast car. Sounds like you were into the sixes for the eighth mile split?

    Some folks claim the 570S also has the best ride quality in the supercar category any truth to this ?

    Don't know about that. I'm pretty sure the ride quality is better in 12C/650S given the hydraulic suspension.

    That said, it depends how you define ride quality. Comfort? Performance? The 12C/650S/P1 hydraulic suspension is better in both comfort and performance, but it also feels less "natural," or so they say.

    The thing about ride quality though is that you'll never know the difference unless you traverse the same roads constantly and they are really bad. Any given bump or dynamics in the real world could lead to a perceived difference in suspension, but then again, how would you know if it was due to the car or just the road at any given time.

    Give me the world's smoothest exotic and I'll find you a road that will rattle your filling loose.
