No, the standard car would take well over a mile to do what this does in half a mile.

The twin turbo Lambos are seen as the target. Capacity disadvantage though, but the gap is closing year by year. People have only just started playing with gearing on the GTRs.

Wasn't the RUF 911's doing this 10 years ago? And the 9FF moving the bar further?
