they shoulda given the slower car to the Stig.... real world situation .... i drive a 1.3 and constantly keep up with BMW 330s.... why? I drive better than the pratz that drive them and they think i am racing every time i pass them. So i simply beat them using traffic conditions and better driving. I take no stupid risks.... and know which lanes offer better passage..... and a little bit of psychology. And wow the frustration they show when they end up behind me!
@KWASHIC yeah people like you all the time in your little 1.3's thinking your faster.... us in our type r's bmw 330's, st's ect.... we dont try. why would we when we see you pulling up in a micra? the only person your pulling is yourself
seriously, the entire point of this was to shit on ford. i honesty want to know how this car stacks up against other hatches but noooo top gear is just way to "funny" for that
well never heard a good word about ford from this guys mouth before! do a little work to that ford and it would have been a way better race b,c the get them little things pretty sick.
@bobilator1 um i supposed by new gt40 you mean the ford gt? And they havent made those in a few years so there not exactly new. But they are really awesome cars i would love to have one! And he only likes that car b,c its a masterpiece no one can hate on that car.
@bobilator1 thats good because ford owns auston martin ,,,, and the ford fiesta 570 horse off road version just set the new indoor world record for speed ,,,, not to mention clarksons other favorte [ jaguar ] is owned by damler chrysler ,,, so the big brit hot rods are nt brititsh any ,more and have nt been for years
No amount of good handling is going to make up for a 200 hp deficit on the speed stretches of the track. Maybe if this were an autocross event...maybe. But the Lambo just has too much grunt...plus AWD. Only an idiot would think this would be a close contest.
@veigadevil On a fast track...the Lambo...again. Like I said, it's one thing when a car exhibits god-like handling prowess and can out corner a more powerful car. It's a completely different story when the more powerful car has enough room to stretch its legs and walk away from the lighter, less powerful car. HP=speed.
@razorfett147 you wrong hp = more power/torque... speed = aerodynamic you can have lots of hp and you cant hit 300 kmh but if your car has good aerodynamics you can hit that speed with less hp per ton
@veigadevil So do you really want to make the argument that the Focus should be able to flat outrun a Gallardo on a straight stretch? Don't mean to put you on the spot but you're really dragging this point far too off topic. And I'm sorry to disagree with you again, but an Ariel Atom isn't walking away from ANY Gallardo on a straight pull having only a 155 mph top speed. You chose a poor example mate.
@freshfruit23 i agree but i think the lambo would still win. But for the ford to even begin to keep up when comparing what they 2 cars are and how much they cost is pretty crazy to say the least!
First off its a damn site easier to follow someone than to try and out run them, so why the hell is the stig not in the focus and the fat man in the lambo...
