  • @MABCME that comment is over a year old o-o

  • @SnipeSpace rubens barichello did :D

  • @mbsnyderc of course but the mondeo or vectra aint so good on a track.

  • The Caterham R500 is already on the list and they have faster times than this now as well .I don't know the changes to to this car but the track looks different.cool car but cars like this are about what you can live without.probably great on a track and terrible on the street for daily driving.

  • @DJDrOWNZ RS500 is factory build...

  • @DJDrOWNZ i actually don't mind the caterham,it's incredible for the value..the thing i really dislike is the cockpit in said caterhams.

    But like you said,weight to horsepower ratio.

  • csr 260 is factory built only btw so no its not a kit car but all other caterhams (apart from the sp/300.r) are kit cars

  • @DON619ST38 what you just said is basically explaining why its so good for tracks '1manned rollbar with a motor/seat attached' is the whole point, lightness

  • Search 9rLvGMb46KY to see a 2:56 timelapse build of a Caterham.

    Search W1N6EI0hlnw to see a 9:20 video of our Caterham passing everyone

    on a trackday at Nelson Ledges Road Course in northeast Ohio.

    We have put 6,000 miles per year on our Caterhams for the past 10 years

    including 3,000 miles on one vacation to Texas.

    They are kit-cars since self-assembly is necessary to license them for road use in the US

    but they are fun to assemble and fun to drive everywhere and in any weather.
