Just one lap without sliding

It was so obvious the other driver was doing everything to slid in every single corner. Why not drive ONE lap for us without sliding so we can see which one is actually faster?

Well.......

Like you said either,but, on looks,i'd have the BMW.

Who was?

Who was the exuberant wheelman in the other car Matt ?? What most of us would dearly love to have a comparison on are (1) tyre wear (2) consumption (3) SERVICE costs and intervals
How about it? - Oh and until I get that info I agree with you - The Lexus is far less likely to throw you into a ditch or up a tree
