    Default Why lightweight rocks



    Check this vid out. A bunch of supercars pulling some hard laps. NSX Type R, Lambo murcielago, lambo gaiardo, porsche turbo, m3 csl and a 360 modena. This isn't even on a track that favours handling over power either and just watch how the nsx keeps the other cars at bay, they have damn near twice the power but they can barely lay a finger on it. Impressive shit I reckon.

    NSX's are fucking unreal, they are one of the best balanced cars in the world, remember a test in Motor magazine, they said you hit a mid corner bump going hard and all four wheels just skip sideways then it settles again perfectly.

    NSX-R nails 0 - 100 in 4.5 secs, win.

    Impressive machine, no doubt, but I think much of the credit goes to the driver.
