Last I checked SVTOA on track events aren't races. Did no one else notice the L slowing down as not to pass the GT so ohh I dont know he could keep shooting video of it?!

Ooooh were the stickers yellow? If so, then ok I resind my comments. The MSP IS faster than GT! 
PS seeing as you were there, how about's contributing something constructive to the debate then. Who's give a flying leap whtether you were watching form the tower or from Kristen's bra-strap?

The Lightning in the video is routinely open tracked, IIRC, and runs mid-low 12s. Watch the GT pull away from it like its a Supercharged ATX Zetect (sorry hector ). Note, the Lightning only hangs with the GT because the GT is taking it easy. Again, as Stazi noted, listen to the lack of blower whine you hear throughout the video. No blower whine = no acceleration. They do slow down to let the MSP pass. Because the MSP was catching them. Most likely seeing how the guy driving the GT seems to be getting to know the car, and the GT & Lightning are 'playing' with each other if you will.

wtf is wrong with you people????
MSP is a nice little car. 500+ hp roadrace MSP is exceptionally unlikely.
The same could be said about a 400+ hp contour  unlikely but not impossible...

arent all lightnings?
i wouldnt think it would make too much of a difference with the kind of power that thing is putting out. s/c definitely helps out there.

Jason, since we've determined that none of your posts can be trusted for factual accuracy, I think you had best just sit this one out.
The GT driver in the video is a friend of mine, and a former co-worker. He has explicitly stated that he was driving very easy on the car, and the video supports this statement by the rather leasuirly line through the course.
