Top Gear Powerboard - Laptimes

I must say I absolutely love the Gumpert and the Ascari

The Gumpert, while fast, is horrendously ugly.

Just an FYI but the Ascari A10 is a one off prototype. The KZ1 is its true production version.

Really?

understatement of the week

this is an embarassment

to beat it by less than 20km/hr, did they check that the handbrake wasnt on?

btw check the sponsoring on the side of that machine vs the 1906's number 2 + thats it

They have now managed an average speed of 148mph and peaked 155mph.

What's next? Fastest clockwork-driven vehicle, or would that just be a wind up?

Well I definitely think that this thread has blown off enough steam and is now winding down ...

Would be nice to see all of them at the Top Gear track though (i.e. the new Steam car and the R/C car).

I however dont think it is horrendously ugly. What is horrendously ugly is the Panamera.
