Good video. Shows the Stig driving the FGT on the Aussie track and got the best time yet of 1:08.80. The Nissan GTR got 2nd best at 1:09.46. Considering that this was a modified GT, probably with a Whipple, makes the GTR time not to shabby. The track is a tight one a bet Hoosiers on a stock FGT may be faster yet.

GTR run in another video on the same page.

I don't even want to turn the TV on. It may be time to move to Indonesia.

Did he say $500,000 (I'm assuming Aussie $$$)? Is that because of the conversion and whipple, etc., or is there some crazy tarrif bringing the GT down under?
Pretty funny hearing him talk about speed in kliks though. Makes you think the car is good for 260MPH!
