After applying some science and narrowing the shortlist to the Mercedes C63 AMG and Audi R8 V10, we let the best drivers do battle. Could Aston Martin GT ace Darren Turner, Porsche Carrera champion Michael Meadows or Lotus GP2 driver James Calado claim honours for the circuit drivers. Or could WRC flyer Elfyn Evans, world drift champion Mauro Calo wrestle top honours from professional scribblers John Barker and Steve Sutcliffe. Let battle commence.
