Come on dude... Cruze almost has 180-200BHP... That is enough for you.... You can smoke the circuit..

It's not a go-Kart track sir, it's a F1 track! Even a 1500bhp supercar won't come close to a single seater timing!

Who told you to beat the single seater timings SAAR.... I thought you could better the timings of the MMST track record or create a new one by using passenger car Right??

BIC is way longer than MMST. So average lap times will be more as well. So no point comparing both circuits. And I'm not even remotely good enough to come close to setting a lap record in any car, let alone on a F1 circuit. I just enjoy driving fast..

Back to topic, would love to drive a single seater at BIC..

Hmm I did hear plans of track days being organized in 2012, when I was at the track. Nice initiative. Around 25 entries have been confirmed.
