Even more reason to make me think that this is far from a standard car then.

What do you mean "why" it a 1750Kg car (if ScoobyWeb is right) with 480 bhp (274bhp/tonne) lapping only a few seconds slower than 1350Kg 605 bhp (448bhp/tonne) cars.

£60-70K I heard and there wil5l be one at Litcho's in January IIRC

I do like the gearbox on the rear diff must be better for weight distribution

it is a shame that Subaru hadn't done the same with the new STi as the Scoob is quite front heavy

IMHO

i mean , just cos its a bit heavier....doesnt mean its going to be lardy....it has millions spent on geometry and technology and has had to live up to the r34 gtr....thats what i mean... i read the post as if there was doubt as to the car doing the nurburgring and the one that will leave the factory....both the same imho .i dont think this one has been altered at all !!! ...this is a weapon....

Air pressures remain more constant under changing tempratures mate.

Normal air has all sorts of different molecules in it, inc water and lot of different gases.
The nitrogen is a constant and maintains much better control of tyre pressures, especially when used on track

It looks to me like they have copied the front grill area from the Evo X.

7.38 + 5/6 seconds for the final straight! The car doesn't finish the lap on the youtube vid. The time stops on the last corner. Surely that's not right
