On our 15th trip to Virginia International Raceway, we set lap times in 21 of the best performance cars of the year. Over three days of hammering tires and brakes on America's most grueling road course, a few records fell, some old scores were settled, and we came to the realization that this in no way resembles work.

I saw a GT350 in the bushes just a few days ago. Officer on the scene giving the young driver a "good talkin' to". The car was probably not totalled...but close.

Wow that n/a rwd Mach 1 is very impressive and looks so good too. What a great pkg for the $$, .......and of course the GT3 is a beautiful gem as usual. That Black series, jaw dropping. I love many brands and appreciate them all

I've always been impressed by Porsche's ability to improve the GT3 from gen to gen without adding turbos or a ton of more horsepower, it's one of my favorites all time. The Mustang is a great package for the money it's too bad (and greedy) dealers are marking them up so much.

Next year, for fun, you should do a comparo of the C&D 10 best vehicles. It would be interesting to see how they did on this track… All being $100,000 or less.

the black series is almost as much as the senna in some cases maybe more

Sennas are going for well over a million.. Gt black series can be had for roughly half that.. For virtually the same performance

I thoroughly enjoyed this presentation! The Mustang surprised the heck out of me! Next year, I'd like to see the much ballyhooed Elantra N.

Next year I want to see the new WRX. I’m curious to see how it compares to last gen now that it’s running on Subie’s crossover platform. Also, where are the EVs? Mach E GT, Model 3 Performance, Plaid? And here’s a prediction, the Electra N makes some fans on the track next year, maybe the Kona N too.

@Thor Odin son Taycan has done more sequential laps around VIR than the high school vape pen specials from Subaru/Toyota. Also 17 seconds a lap faster.
