That was an awesome race. Thought the LFA should have been closer as well.

Hard to believe that the LFA wouldn't have whipped the GT-R.

GT-R is all wheel drive with launch control. But the Italia would have caught up if the distance was a longer race. Maybe LFA would have won from a roll.

It would have taken 1 mile for the 458 Italia to catch the GTR.

Despite the 4.0 seconds 0 - 60 mph, LFA trapped at 124 mph. Lexus LFA just needs better tires that can hook up properly with those 552 HP. The S001 do a very poor job at that.
