[scans]Sportauto supertest: Pagani Zonda F - 04-16-2006, 06:15 AM

short summary:

- the Porsche Carrear GT still is faster than the Zonda F at the Nurbring North Loop, the new sport auto ranking:

7:32 - Porsche Carrera GT
7:33m - Pagani Zonda F
7:34m - Koenigsegg CCR

- at the Hockenheim short track the Zonda F loses against the CGT and CCR due to oversteer, also the better aerodynamic of the Zonda F wasn?t any advantage there

0-200-0 km/h in 15.8 secs. same as the SLR but slower than the CGT and CCR:
14.5s - CCR
15.0s - CGT
15.8s - SLR
15.8s - Zonda F
15.9s - Zonda S, just a slight improvement

- better aerodynamic than the CGT and CCR, 1kg/25kg downforce in front/rear at 200 km/h, very good balance and a cd of 0.358 show the aerodynamic improvent also of the new rear wing comapared to the Zonda S

- 1.4g max. lateral acceleration on track with Michelin Pilot Sport 2 tires, better than the CGT and CCR with only 1.35g

kerb weight: 1371 kg
power-to-weight ratio: 435PS/ton
0-100 km/h: 3.8s
0-160 km/h: 7.7s
0-200 km/h: 11.4s
Vmax: 345 km/h

36m slalom: 137 km/h,
better than the CGT with only 137 km/h but not faster than the CCR with 138 km/h

evade test, 110m: 159km/h,
faster than the CCR and CGT with 158 respectively 157 km/h

wet handling: 1:34.3m,
not faster than the Ford GT or CCR with 1:31.8m respectively 1:33.5m

verdict:
No surprise at all, but from a super sportscar at the high price range nothing else should be expected even though so much money is no guarantee.
the lastest version of the Zonda is not just good but fantastic from every point of view, an automotive sculpture, an eye cather par excellence, the high price is visible in very detail, craftmanship and enginerring at the finest.

100% functionalty is the result, 100% in 7 out of 8 disciplines ain the sport auto Supertest, higher rating than the CCR and CGT!!!

Re: Weird Weird, Zonda F not faster than CGT around Nordschleife. - 04-16-2006, 06:33 AM

the time we heard before, 7:32.44 was a claim by Autodromes Cannes, a Pagani dealer and not by sportauto.

Wow, what a nice sunday suprise. To be honest I had high expectations of the Zonda F and though it was going to be the car that knocks the CGT of the thrown. On the other hand I'm happy it didn't It seem like the CGT is almost unbeatable when it comes to track performance.
