[Dingo]

Heres a video the fellas on the holden forums posted.

They were all laughing and afew were saying "Lucky it did its alternator! "

Then afew were saying "Yeah but its also 300/400kg lighter than the Falcon"

Still a good watch!

Make up your own minds.

Thats what i was thinking...

Ive seen one high octane video. The one where they test the viper in the hills of california and it goes sliding off the side hahahah classic. Poor car but still made me chuckle, like when you see someone trip when they're walking........................shuttup you all do it too

Yeap definatlly the clips from high octane...

I thought the rotor was cool...

The track was no bathurst tho.... The rotor probablly would not make it so well round a big circuit. It was a little nippy car with lots of little legs... The supercar has long legs for long straights...

So i think you will find at a circuit like bathurst (a normal V8 supercar circuit) then the V8 would win hands down.

Thats coming from a person who like V8 supercars & rotor's alike. Non bias opinion.

The track was wakefield park, and the bloke driving the v8 owns the circuit.

But simply, that rotor should be quicker than a v8 supecar at any track. The category the rotor is in in Sports Sedans, and the quickest sports sedans are v8s (like the v8 Saab and Alfas that race the national series). So its a bit of an unfair comparison.

In fact all around australia the quickest race cars are v8s now F1 has also gone v8.

F1

A1 GP

Formula 5000

Sports Sedans with v8s.

Probably the quickest cars that are not v8s are Formula 3, 3l na race cars. Then cars like the rotor sports sedan

Wow owning your own race track.........thats goto rule........well actually mines call Mona Vale Road hahahhaha just joking.............keep racing to the track people!
