Wow. All out performance, I don't think the T1 would do so well, but that driving was impressive. S/he definitely knows that track, the vehicle, and they have some gull. Cool video, except I haven't learned enough German to understand ANYTHING from the video.

I did like the GT40, and even the MKs that came before it, but it took so many tries to get it right. Between power, reliability, and the price tag, the GT40 seems like a bit too much to be worth it. And I'm not sure if they actually made a street legal/production version, I thought they were all for racing. Similar to my comment about the GT44, trying to get the last model, the final editions of the GT40 were truly spectacular. I get the vette for the money, and the string rays did look good. Just not my cup of tea.

It seems like a lot of people are into the E type. I was always taught that you have to buy two Jags, so you always have something to drive...
And reviewing recent reviews of Jags since Ford sold them to Tata, their reliability has not increased at all, regardless of the fantastic upgrades in style, power, and material. I think the E type is ugly, but it seems the rest of the world loves it, so it must just be me.
I am not a huge fan of Porsche, even though I love the current Volkswagen group (including Porsche). What I am a huge fan of, is RUF.
