The DC5 has its logistical advantages, but the DC7 N/A with Root Cyclone technology would whip it on TheTwisties™

Have been a passenger in a Supercharged VVTI thingie, the DC5 is the better all round car, it just didnt handle as well as the Teg, and power wasnt exactly blinding. The Supercharger is aftermarket.
