Exactly!!!

Things may be closer on a dry track perhaps, personally it doesn't matter to me, there's more to a performance vehicle than the numbers, but in saying that, if those figures on a wet track would of been in FPV's favour most members here would of been all over it like a rash. I've always loved my Ford V8's, (owned 14 of them) but you have to give credit to HSV, FPV finally produce a vehicle in the R-Spec that's of worthy competition, then HSV manage to lift the bar yet again by doing what they do best and have always done by listening to what their buyers and loyal supporters want and producing a vehicle on paper at least, that looks amazing value for money.
