========================================

as for why this car is great, i think its the overall success. in motorport, it dominated the greatest race in the the world in 1995 and assaulted the sportscar championships like a pack of wolves for the following years.

in the automotive world, its speed and acceleration were just insane. imagine yourself as a press member in 1993. what could possibly be speeding through your mind when you heard that a car from Great Britain can do 0-60 in 3.4sec and a top speed of 231mph? would you believe it? i know i wouldnt. but then agian the F1 has proven itself and it was tested to have a top speed of 240mph and 0-60 in 3.2sec. its sister variation, the F1 LM, used to hold the world record for 0-100-0. it is just now that cars built over 10 years later are starting to compare to that speed.

i can go on and on about the techological innovation and radical features, so i wont
