@MrSpike13

It's a general test day, so both cars out on track just practicing, setting up the cars etc.

[MrSpike13]

@matts62yt cool

seems the Vectra would be the faster car if they were from the same class and had the same power

[matts62yt]

@MrSpike13

Yes and No. THe Vectra has thinner tyres and a lot less power, but the car has £30,000 worth of suspension on it, the BMW doesn't, that makes a big difference to grip. A super V8 Vauxhall versus a super V8 BMW...with the same spec suspension? No contest!!!

Touring cars are faster round the corners though.

[andrewwinchester]

well thats what happens when youve got about an extra 200bhp than him
