I wonder how much of that was due to driving too. I've seen a lot of these Best Motoring videos, and it always seems that the cars in the back of the starting grid always struggle with the traffic ahead of them, while the cars in front off the start just pull away because they have no traffic ion front of them.

They really have to put the faster cars in the back, putting them in the front would obviously not be fair. If you see, they order from power/weight ratio.

the 360 modena is not that fast..i can smoke those things they only do a 12.8 in the 1/4(stock) i can do about 12.6 with proper launch...they do have a higher trap speed 112.....but you will get them off the line(race is over @ 60 anyhow)...we all know most ferrari owners arent good drivers ROFL

Pretty much! Watch the "STi Fast on 4" video and the STi wins. Watch "The Evo Strikes Back" and the Evo wins. What it comes down to is "If you don't like seeing your hero get beaten, buy the video named after it."

You could by some video called "Kia Action," and one way or another, that damned Kia would find a way to beat a Bugatti Veyron.

That's about it. Best just to get them off of Bear Share or borrow them from a buddy.

I do like some of the coverage though. You can't beat Ferrari and Ford GT fly-bys.

Umm, doesn't it make sense for the title to indicate the content? Why should that remotely be a surprise? If I buy "Asian Hottie Gangbang" I'd be expecting to see Asian hotties getting gangbanged...
