Lightning Test Report

I have done the search thing here and on Google, no luck. I am looking for a full test report on the L including 0-30, 0-40 , 0-50 , .....0-100 ET. Braking distance 60-0 & 80 - 0. Something that Road & Track might publish.
I am trying to compare to my new ride. Thanks.

I think Tim's website has some articles that may cover this:

Ed,

Thanks, but not the type of report I was looking for. Anyone else?

why are you looking to do this comparison? did you have an L and now you have somethin else and you're comparing it to that? or do you have an L now and are wondering how it stacks up to other L's?

I have had my L since March of 2000, bought it new. I still own it, & recently bought a E55 . The E55 is much faster than the L and I wanted to compare performance numbers vs a stock L like mine. Any ideas? Thanks.

04LIGHTING and MAT2CH, thanks for the info. The shoot out link had the most info so far. Still looking for a 0-100 time for the L.
