no LFA? ghey.

one of my favs was the Viper GTS. a real classic brutish sound. the SLS doesn't do much for me. also the auto trannies sound so lame. especially the MB's. Countach gurgling was a nice treat, also enjoyed the TR doing donuts, there's something you usually (read: never) see.

The guy at 3:25 - his face went from shock to excitement faster then that thing hit 100.

Its crazy seeing how hard its pushing them into the seats. I want a ride.

The Caterham and Westfield are pretty much the same, theyre both based off the old school Lotus 7. Check here to see all the replicas:

Man, I remember staying up late to watch Lemans back when it was on Speedvision (back when SpeedTV was Speedvision and aired real racing). Loved seeing the old GT-Ones, R92, Vipers and Panoz

I miss the Tail of the Dragon


I want an E30 even more now. The driver keeps making the same mistake though....

And the Alfa isnt as composed as the E30.
