Ride in a Cuda Saloon Car *video*

Wow! That was an amazing video. My heart's beating 100mph right now.

What's interesting though is that the little Bimmer kept ending up in front of the Cuda.  Looked like it would be a pretty close race between the two.

I think the BMW was faster in the corners but slower on the straights.

I think the BMW was faster in the corners but slower on the straights.

   That's how the BMWs and Datsun 510's kept up in Trans-Am. They couldn't hang with the faster 5.0 liter cars, but the quickest ones were nimble enough to run with the mid-pack V8 cars.  In the vintage races I watched over the weekends, several BMW 2002's were keeping up with the back of the lead pack and well ahead of a large number of V8 cars.
