Car and Driver's inaugural Lightning Lap at Virginia International Speedway
Car and Driver magazine of United States puts up their annual Lightning Lap showdown of the year. The purpose of the Lightning Lap is to first categorize them into 5 classes base on pricing, and then determine which from each class would emerge as the 'Least cost for most performance' in short the most bang for buck wins. The classes ranges from LL1 - LL5, of which were simply:
LL1 - $30,000 USD and below
LL2 - $30,000 USD - $60,000 USD
LL3 - $60,000 USD - $120,000 USD
LL4 - $120,000 USD - $240,000 USD
LL5 - $240,000 USD and above
Well we couldn't care much bout their selling prices and lap time, we're more interested on whether you can name out all these cars - As a true petrol head would. Name them in the comments section.
