I'm curious how the track times compare to what bikes do?

[MPalatov]

@booomhauer the fastest i've driven there so far is just under 1:54, from what i understand that's on par with the fastest bike times, most bikes i see at trackdays are well over 2:00. of course our aim is to take another 10 seconds off this time.

Hmm, that 570HP Porsche Turbo you hunted down looks familiar :)  Pete

[MPalatov]

@pstoppani it was fun chasing you!  :)

@MPalatov I was actually thinking "Where's your Nomex, son??" :)

You should find someone else to drive this thing when making videos. Your driving style (basically just cruising) makes it appear as if it'd be hard to drive at speed.

Just saying...

@amirbooboo the car is very easy and fun to drive, however like with anything being really fast requires an experienced driver. in the video i'm not very fast yet :)

[amirbooboo]

@MPalatov  bro one day i will buy one.

but you are so chil in the video is that easy to drive ?

[MPalatov]

@Jaxxex you've got a point there, i do need to upgrade my driving gear.

[Jaxxex]
