Default Carrera GT on track?





















It was pretty nice, surprisingly quiet on track (could barely hear the engine from 25yds away). He was pretty much rolling everyone, the effortless speed down the front straight was amazing. This was already his fifth track day with the car, kudos to that guy.

This was at Summit Point, WV with the PCA

A large percentage of that car is CF. Suspension, chassis, engine mounting, etc. etc. all CF

for using the car how it was meant to be used.

There is nothing more annoying than garage queen supercars. Useless.

I would slow down, get over, and get "rolled just to see that car go by me.

What ^^ said. I saw a Carrera GT a few months ago - simply the most gorgeous car I've ever seen in person. The details on it are stunning.
