To achive the second it has much higher damand on the car and the drive. the car needs to be balanced and the driver actually needs to know how to drive.
so this is to say a 12.9s 0-400m s15 doean't mean it's a faster car than s2000, unless it's faster on the track than the s2000, which it's very doutful.
ppl always like to judge how fast is a car by it's 0-100k and 0-400m time, but the truth is it should be judge on how fast can a car go aorund a race track.
cars that do fast 0-100m 0-400m are powerful cars, cars that do fast lap times are truly the fast cars.
