Motor Trend Best Driver's Car 2014 - Laguna Seca Hot Laps & Lap Times




Well, it's this time of the year again for Motor Trend's Best Driver's Car feature. The full feature and the drag race is not available yet but quick reviews have been posted for the contenders as well as lap times (everyone loves lap times, right?).

I will post a rundown of the cars that surprised and disappointed me the most when the full reviews are available but for now, enjoy the above car introductions and specs as well as hot laps and lap times around Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca. I have posted the most recent video, which is of the 2015 Nissan GT-R Nismo. From there, you can go back through videos by clicking on the video insert next to "PREVIOUS VIDEO" or "NEXT  VIDEO" between the 2:30 mark and the 2:40 mark depending on the car's lap time. This year's entrants are the following:

2015 VW Golf GTI - 1:50.11
2015 BMW M4 - 1:39.69
2014 Porsche 911 Turbo S - 1:35.62
2015 Alfa Romeo 4C (Launch Edition) - 1:43.78
