Default F Type R series races a SVR coupe

Hey guys,
Take a look at the video. The two cars are just about even. The SVR barely takes the R series . Such a minor difference in finish time for the quarter mile, it's negligible in my opinion.

I want to see some fender-to-fender racing on a road track to see how much better (or not) the SVR is.

They need to leave the top up on the convertibles for timed sprints

I agree with WhiteTardis. Why would they race the R with the top down? That has to hurt its time a little.

Actually should have been coupe vs. coupe, or vert vs. vert for a more accurate comparison. Not only for aerodynamics, but weight also.
