    This is my first day completely off from both work and school AND with the house to myself in over a year. I am loving it.

    Anyhow, all the time has left me available to watching 'Top Gear' online for most of the morning. In my searches I found this:

    Part 1:http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=5201953370477611835&q=db9

    Part 2: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=723931718814989207&q=Nardo

    Part 3: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-8542795455923325860&q=Nardo

    Featured are the Enzo, DB9, Carerra GT, DB9, SLR and my favorite...The Murcielago.

    great video, love the comparison. i love the sounds of all the cars, music to any car lover's ears. i'd love to see this same test with the new lambo miura, maybe something that could contend with the acceleration numbers of the enzo.

    that was terrific! thanks!

    is this show regularly on tv. can we get it in usa?

    interesting that spread in lap times from cgt to enzo was as great as from enzo to muci. surprising given that track was described as having "tight turns" which should have put muci at huge disadvantage to enzo given weight and awd.

    Top Gear was shown earlier this year on the Discovery Channel in a edited form. The rumor is that it will be back on in the December/ January time frame.
    And also if you can get BBC Canada feed they are showing the new season right now unedited.

    Actually, quite the opposite. In tighter, lower-speed corners, most high-powered cars are traction limited on the exits ... the AWD of the Murci will allow it to put down more power and squirt out of the bends quicker.

    You are correct about the weight however.
