MAKO said:I don't think I'll be putting more money into it however, as it would take at least a well tuned FX400 kit or a Gerry Johnson high-boost kit to keep pace with a stock Gallardo.MAKO
NetViper said:True, but a FX500 tuned will leave a gallardo in the dust for 1/3 the price..
MAKO said:And NSXTACY_MD, I would recommend you look at the big picture. It was a five lap race, and both the Murci and Gallardo would have gotten by on lap six, even without the R overheating. What happens in a 10 lap race? How about 20 laps? How about 40 laps? .

The same two that came in first and second place in the actual 5-lap "race" and the same two that would come in first and second place in a 40 lap "race". On inferior tires to the R. Case closed.
The rest is fanboy hype and speculation.

MAKO said:When you actually drive a Gallardo, or a Murci, you let me know. I've driven both, and I can tell from your "boat" reference that you're a typical biased NSX owner, living in the early 90s when the car was still a world beater. Times have changed, life goes on, and competitive cars have gotten much better than the days of the "348".

Mr Payne said:I'm not sure what to be more impressed with...the NSX-R or Gan San's racecraft. Truly a badass video.
However, wheel to wheel racing with drivers of varying familiarity with their cars will never prove anything though. It really is painfully obviously how the Murci driver was not going all out in the braking zones...
Supercar said:Wow, great video. Thanks. A great performance from the NSX. Just wondering how a Skyline or an Evo would do on that particular battle.
NSXTASY_MD said:Based on previous performances and lap times. I'd say those two cars would have difficulty even battling with the rear pack* (the 911 TT, BMW CSL & 360 modena)
Thanks Mako. What a relief to hear that . But do they ever actually pitted an NSX with the GTR and the Evo? What a video that'll be!!
