I'd love to see a test between the Zonda R, Ferrari FXX and Caparo T1.

I'm sure the Caparo would take top honors in everything except maybe top speed, but it would still be amazing to see.

True.
Just curious, how do you think an Ariel Atom would stack up against those? The best possible one.
The 250hp one destroyed the C6Z06, and beat CGT and LP640 on top gears test track.
I still think the caparo would win... maybe cause its 10x the cost

On an extremely short, tight track the Atom will hold its own. Any normal length track and the FXX, Zonda R, et al will trounce the Atom (which has horrible aerodynamics).

Top Gear's test facility is fairly small and favors handling cars over speed cars.

Yeah I know all that, just curious how they would stack up in practice, straight up comparisons of different kinds of performance

Wow! that is beautiful. I'm sure I'd have to sell my condo and everything I else own just to get on the waiting list.
