Interestingly, Cook commented on Turkington's twitter post something along the lines of 'welcome to my world'. Yet other FK8s were towards the top of the speed-trap figures. Crees set a 4th fastest Intermediate, and 3rd fastest finish line speed in two separate sessions. If 4/5 FK8s are quick in a straight line, then that lack of speed is either an issue with the car itself or the driver......
When the 3 series debuted last year it was mighty in a straight line. It was only the fact that subsequent boost reductions have dented this strength.
