Seeing as the FQ320 did a 1:26 flat, I am assuming the FQ400 turned something in the 1:24.8 range then? Just under the GT3 RS, the 360 CS, the Zonda and the Koeingsegg

For some reason I think that they didnt want the FQ400 being on top. Stig really wasnt driving that fast and on the hammerhead, he was running wide like crazy and didnt even care to feather the gas, instead he didnt even use his gas pedal. That run was somewhat dissapointing. Remember when Jeremy and that guy were fooling around with the Murcielago......well the EVO was on his *** the whole time and Jeremy even said "im faster that you sunshine". I believe the EVO would've been top 3 w/GT, SLR and ZONDA!!

Watching it again, Stig's performance really was pretty **** poor.

Haha, Jeremy's radio comment was funny. "Stupid flashing lights."

I think this one might work. I'm not sure about the codec issue tho.

Special thanks to "justchil" for providing the link.

Enjoy!

Keep in mind that the powerlap was done on a greasy/wet/damp track. Top Gear's presentors should have made a note of that on the powerlap board. If they did make a note of it it would be given a 1-2 second decrease.
