I doubt whatever you drive would compare any different to that car.

It is an amazing piece of kit yes, BUT i have to agree with Chip, it doesn't have the greatest reliability record tbh, where if you compare GOBSTOPPER that car gets hammered @ all the Time Attack events and hasn't hardly skipped a beat.. but as said, huge amount of ŁŁŁ gone into tem both and BOTH great cars..

Mind you, Martins Escos isn't shy really is it?? or Harveys.

To be honest thats a fair point.

The Gobstopper I would say is better, and more reliable.

They are both out of this world.
