Top Gear's Exige S video

Just found this Top Gear Video from Streetfire.net....

Exige S blew away the Mustang! Great video..."Stuff sold by the grams are always greater than stuff sold by the pounds!"...and later driven by the Stig!

Sorry if this is a repost - just want to share (again), enjoy.

A Roush or a Shelby Mustang would have won.

P.S... I already know of that vid of the Exige S beating the Roush... Fluke, the Roush didnt want to collide with the Exige S.

Just like the Exige didn't want to collide with the mustang who obviously was going a lot slower in the turns? It would be more fair to do a time trail to see who would be faster, but the Exige S would def have won in that case because half the time the Mustang had the lead. I fail to see how a 3300lb car can out corner a 1900lb car in a course thats mostly corners.
