Re: Lamborghini Gallardo vs. Ford GT
Interesting supposition. So the Ford exceeds the sum of its parts, while the gallardo fails to. Interesting...

Re: Lamborghini Gallardo vs. Ford GT
all this gives me a new perspective on awd. i have always heard that awd is the best for cornering. there have been a couple threads on af that have said that a awd car wins just because it can corner better than any other car.

Re: Lamborghini Gallardo vs. Ford GT
Well, if the car tested is the C&D Ford GT, then it would put a world of hurt on 996TT, Murcielago, or Gallardo. If it was the R&T or Motortrend GT, then it would be comparable to the Lambos, but probably faster than the 996TT...

Re: Lamborghini Gallardo vs. Ford GT
also, looking at the amusment factor, imo rwd is the best. you can whip the tail around the corner, that is a lot more funner than just turning around a corner. but thats just me.

Re: Lamborghini Gallardo vs. Ford GT
Yeah, I don't know that I would take any data or ideas from the C&D test of the GT. Those figures were pretty far of the mark set by every other journalist test. Statistically speaking, that data can be tossed.

Re: Lamborghini Gallardo vs. Ford GT
Why is my Poll off, I set the day limit to 0, did the moderators turn it off?, and is there anyway to get it back up and running again?

Ok, strictly statistically speaking, no, the data cannot be tossed. However, while I have only seen numerical data from three sources, I have seen many other reviews of the GT. None of them place the car (even in straightline which is what the C&D test suggests) in the relm of the enzo or Koenigsegg. As a rational human being, I would say that the C&D data can be ignored.
