sl55 top gear test

hey did anyone tape that test?

are there any downloads, im interested in adding this video to my collection.

in addition, if anyone saw the top gear video of the zonda it looks like an amazing car, why does it only put out like 500-600 bhp in a 7.3 litre engine?

btw a guy on the bmw board is thnkin bout runnin one in the gumball this upcoming year

I have driven the Zonda and it is amazing. It only weighs 1200KG, so I do not think they needed to extract more BHP which would have resulted in a hard to drive, nervous car.

He's also a member here. Robbie (aka Lonman) - running it in Player's Run if it shows up in time. He ran the SL55 last year.

Too Young To Drive
Robbie was discussing on the BMW board of getting a Zonda for next years Gumball. But then selling it will be a pain, especially if everyone finds out it's a Gumball Zonda.
