Noble M12 GTO-3R at Barber
Discussion
The June 2004 issue of Automobile magazine tests nine sports cars including the Noble M12 GTO-3R at Barber Motorsports Track, which is a fairly twisty track here in the USA (track map). Mason at puresportscar.com provides a full transcript of the article.
The GTO-3R performs spectacularly well at Barber, only 0.3 seconds per lap behind the Superlight R but ahead of the 360CS, 911 GT3, Viper, Elise, Evo RS, S2000, and Neon SRT-4 (in lap time order). Interesting to see that only the Caterham and Noble provide performance well in excess of their price.
