Fine tuning grille tape, wheel angles, tyre pressures and gear ratios can help you find quite a lot of time. Acceleration can be a bigger thing than outright top speed.

It turns out that I won't be around for this one. My car is available is someone wants it.
Tempting...but I don't think the EMKA would fare well here...
I just did a quick test with it. It just lacks power. Easy to drive, good brakes, but not enough power to compensate the drag. It's 30bhp down on the Zakspeed for example. I've uploaded a set for it in case anyone grabs it. Top speed 301, lap 2:06.

I'd love to grab the EMKA if I'm allowed to, I just love that car, especially the engine sound
But James has dibs over me since he responded first so if he wants it it's his
If not for me, I'll keep my eye out still for any other car I may be allowed to drive

If you are scared entering a corner, you are pushing to hard, if you are bored entering a corner, you aren't pushing enough, if you hit it perfectly, it will be better than love

The weaving about when at high speeds is appealing! It's like driving on ice. Make sure you leave plenty of room when pulling alongside a car on Sunday.
