I luv the AM V8, if only they made the base model it so that it could handle like the 911, and a more extreme version than the N24, in which it can be compared to the 911 GT3 RS.

The Gallardo Superleggera would be more comparable to the Ferrari 430 Scuderia

Stelvio

some info about the road:
Passo dello Stelvio is the 2nd highest asphaltic pass in the alps. it's usually open from end of may until november. the 50km long street over the pass was build from the austrian empire between 1820 and 1826. in WWI between 1915 and 1917 was the Italianfront in this region. there are still parts of military positions to see from this time. the design of the road is more or less the same since it was built. still today there is the curvy north east ramp from Trafoi with 48 numbered curves

Fantastic show, I wish we had a show about cars that was half that good here in the U.S.

I say it all the time but this show only highlights it even more. Those guys have the best job on the face of the earth.

Spending a few days driving around Europe in a Galllardo SL and a GT3 RS looking for the best driving road on the planet, give me a fucking break.

Motorweek, based out of Owings Mills, MD, tends to be more "consumer oriented" instead of enthusiast oriented. It's for people who are looking to buy, rather than those who are looking to "letting the tail out".

That road would be fun in a Jeep CJ7 with a 6" lift.  It would be 2 wheels the whole way down.
