Both sweet cars although I think I would go for the CGT.
The Koenigsegg is just brutal.

Wow! SLR Mclaren reeled it in as speeds get higher! I've been waiting for this race actually for a while haha.

But both are great vehicles althought the SLR is still a 5-speed autobox and heavier. Really fast.

I'm REALLY surprised by the SLR, I didn't think it would be close.

True. All results I have seen are very similar to ourresult: the SL-R is a bit faster at very highspeeds:

+ YouTube Video
ERROR: If you can see this, then YouTube is down or you don't have Flash installed.
