[VIDEO]: CGT vs. 599GTB 50-300km/h

Enjoy and make sure to watch both races.
599GTB F1 is stock - CGT has AWE straight pipes

What he said after the first race is: "I changed into 5th gear, let's do it again."
But I guessed you figuered since it says so below

I am surprised with the outcome. Having driven both cars, the Carrera GT is should easily put 10 car lengths on the 599 GTB Fiorano at that long straight. Well, eventualy having an amature driver behind a fast car is priceless i guess.

Even though he did go from 2 to 2.5 to 3 in the second race a la jamie, the outcome should have been different imo.
The CGT weighs considerably less but let's not forget that it has a cd of 0.39
