Evo MR FQ400 vs. Noble M400 Video

Fifth Gear's latest episode tests the MR FQ400 against the M400. Interesting watch.

You will need BitTorrent. Get the episode here: http://www.finalgear.com/downloads/fifthgear/
Look for the May 2nd airing (7x07).









*spoiler below*









Evo loses, by a lot. Oh well. Personally, I don't think the Evo was pushed to its limit.

I think the EVO FQ340 MR would have done much better. The turbo upgrade on the FQ400 is useless in my eyes, considering dyno'd the car only puts down 300awhp....would be easy to get that from the stock turbo, I don't see why ralliart went with a 'laggy' turbo without any huge HP gains.

also, the noble is pretty damn light for 425hp [ about 2530lbs ], and its built to corner. that VS a 3200lb car with a powerband not as good would yield those results.

Can't make it work on my PC. I downloaded bit torrent, but when I go back to download the video, bit torrent opens, but it says the video is 0 kb, and then nothing happens. Can anyone help? Thanks.

yeah i downloaded that yesterday day when i checked the site and i expected that the noble would win. The main problem with the evo in that was its acceleration, in the corners because of the awd id cought up almost every time but as soon as it came to the straight, like they say no replacement for displacement. You guys may remember the fq400 vs the lambo, the only reason it kept up with the lambo was cause there were alot more corners in the top gear track, in the straights the lambo pulled away.
