Mine was on slicks, but only rear wheel drive and about 180hp at the wheels...but it did have a roof!

I did manage a 1.20 chasing a Datsun 1200 coupe with a bog standard N/A 1600 with old hard Yokahamas...

As you know, Taupo 2 is all about acceleration, handling and cornering capability. With 280bhp/tonne and 255mm wide slicks, the car went like a scalded cat. A fun little circuit.

Yeah I got it on camera... Heres the link if you want it, its unlisted so only people who get the link can see it, let me know if you don't want it up though.

That was a brutal section though, a few cars definitely got caught by it, saw the 1200 coupe nearly end up in the trees at a fast pace in the top 10 shootout..
