![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Re: Which whould you rather use for one day of track driving? In my mind, there is no doubt which car I would take the the track if I had the opportunity.......the F430 Scuderia (the supercar I would actually buy if I had the money). Of all the cars there, it is probably the closest to driving a F1 car. Love that high reving naturally aspirated V8 for a linear throttle response, love the fastest shifting sequential manual gearbox on the planet, love the multi-stage (yet defeatable) electronic stability/traction control system with separate adjustments for the dampers to allow the driver to setup the car for each type of track/situation, and I absolutely love the look of the car. As fast as an Enzo on Ferrari's test track......gotta love that too!

Think of the in-gear acceleration of these cars and how crappy I guess Ferrari would be, as compared to the ZR-1 or SRT-10 ACR. I think the fastest lap times would be: GT2 SRT-10 ACR ZR-1 Scuderia LP560-4 But the funnest and best to drive would be: Scuderia SRT-10 ACR LP560-4 ZR-1 GT2
