So do you track only school cars? That has value, but there's also a lot to be said for spending much seat time in your own car and really getting to know it. Now you're talking about being a competent violinist and owning a Stradivarius, but not playing it - no way I could do that!

I track only school cars. I am not really a track junkie. I don't really have time for it. Thant and I am very particular about my cars and don't want to beat them up.

To each their own.

GT4 isn't generating those emotions, at all. Sometimes wonder why I'm even getting one. Tranny, and a value play, for sure.
I'm sure it will be great, but it's no RS, plain and simple.

The 4 x 4 stance and subtle suspension bodes well for Sebring

Top Gear Magazine review.

Basically it says: Was afraid RS would need a track to be exciting - so is not the case.

(Soory for the rotation, uploaded with the app)

Only 4 sec faster on the Ring? Wow that a lot of bones for only 4 seconds.
