Made me feel better about my own driving after I seen how many times a pro driver hit the limiter.

I like where the shifter is in the Viper, right next to the drivers right hand on the wheel.

Bouncing the limiter does seem like a better idea than upshifting, accelerating for .4 seconds, then punching the brakes to prepare for a turn (or three).

+1^ Shifting would just slow him down more.

Thats interesting.

I htink the GTR spec-V and the Diesel twin turbo R8 should be pretty damn close if not maybe best that time.

Its crazy how fast cars are progressing lately.

Its like the old school hp wars X 1000 plus good handling
