evo LAPTIMES ON THE BEDFORD AUTODROME'S WEST CIRCUIT FROM ISSUE 136

By Timothy Cain     at 10/27/2009 08:27:00 AM

The 1.8-mile Bedford Autodrome West Circuit is a challenge put to cars each month by evo magazine in the UK. This month's most high-profile car to take such a challenge is the Lotus Evora, a vehicle unable to crack the 5-and-a-half-second barrier to 60mph but widely recognized as a vehicle expected to make the Porsche Cayman's life a difficult one. The image seen above describes the twists and turns of the West Circuit. It quickly becomes obvious that straight-line speed will only be helpful up to a point.

So for every car tested by evo in Issue 136, keep reading.
