impressive video, you can see how 7 can just goes though the corners faster. Wasn\'t expecting an overtake on the straight though.

also how good does the FB sound about half way through?!?!

very impressive vid, as expected the fd was finding it hard to keep up on the straights but right up his backside on the corners, got him in the end :)

car looks awesome aswell in those pics

The fd would have owned that corvette sooner if the orange car hadn\'t come in the way for so long. On the straights it was not struggling that much either... good vid

considering the Vette probably had more power I think the FD did VERY well against it! I love how on the last straight when the FD is neck and neck the Vette can\'t pull away lol

Thats got some snot!,

The driver can definatly peddle it to, would love to know what other chassis mods he has made to the car as it\'s very flat and stable through the corners.
