The local car show on TV punted a number of cars around a race track and the
figures are as follows:

Porsche 911 - 54:23 Sec
Subaru WRX STi - 54:29
BMW M5 - 55:70
Ford XR6 Turbo - 56:90
Commodore HSV Clubsport R8 - 57:29 (VERY similar to the Monaro)
HSV Maloo R8 - 57:59
Mini Cooper S - 57:67
Audi TT 3.2 DSG - 58:17


See? I told you the (inline Six) Falcon was good.

BTW: I happened to accidentally record Top Gear a few days ago. They just
happened to be comparing the Monaro, the Chrysler 300C (The ugliest sedan on
the planet, BTW) and the Jag. They loved the Monaro. Can any Poms tell me
roughly when the episode was aired in the UK? I want to DL some more
episodes of this excellent show from a Torrent site. I really enjoy that guy
from Brainiac (yes, I watch Brainiac). He's a hoot. I also enjoy watching
Prof Myan Lee from Brainiac too.
