What a load of crap. 6GT2 as a daily driver, you got to be kidding!? Neither one is a daily driver in my opinion. 6GT3 and 6GT2 share almost the exact same chassi and the only reason why the "2" shouldn't be good at the track, depends 100% on driver skills and has nothing to do with the car.

depends on where one lives and the roads. Mine is a daily but if I lived and worked in San Francisco I do not think I would do it. Now, if I lived in Half Moon Bay and worked in San Mateo or Redwood City that would be a good thing.

You do not know what you are talking about!!!
I'm at the track (VIR) with my RUF GT2, 930 Man with his and we are both tearing it up within our run groups (Matt pulled a 2:01 which is UNREAL).. These car's are HIGHLY capable, and confidence inspiring when properly setup, i'm sick and tired of people with NO EXPERIENCE OR SKILL, giving and voicing their opinions which are non factual!

The owner of this GT2 is a regional racer who has turned 1.25 at Mosport on Toyos with his 01 Z06. He can drive.
He had installed Motons CS toe links, tried several types of tires and it was set up by a local Grand Am team.
Compared to my GT3 you would have to be a very experienced and skilled driver to go fast in a GT2, it so much easier to go fast in my 6GT3 then his GT2.
For him, in the end it was a very costly mistake to get the GT2 over the GT3.

Your right the share the almost exact chassis...now the difference is the extra weight on the rear and the Turbo vs. NA. Big difference, you do not have to be a pro in a GT3 to go fast...can't say the same for the Widow maker..and it's got nothing to do with HP & TQ.

I am sorry to offend you, maybe your correct...a highly skilled to Pro driver could drive a GT2 fast.

I would guess you have not driven a stock GT2, it's Cadilac soft compared to a GT3, even with the Moton CS 600/800 it was soft. The only problem I had driving it was a leg cramp from the clutch in heavy traffic.

BTW Matt was nice meeting you again, and Colby his GMG exhaust is UNREAL in person, similar note to my RUF exhaust and not just turbos spooling, sounds and looks quality!

On the street and at Mosport I drove a stock and modded 6GT2 back to back with a stock and my modded 6GT3.
We all found the stock GT2 soft as compared to the GT3..You can mod a GT2 into a stone if that's what you mean??

EXACTLY, DRIVER IS THE LIMITING FACTOR, does not mean the GT2 is a bad/inferior car, this was my first time out at VIR in my GT2, first time on Toyo 888's, first time with my reworked Moton Set and so on. Took me the first day to get use to the car/track, by day 3 I was lapping my blue group until I went white, and was then pulling consistent 2:12's and I think I grabbed a 2:11 but have to get my friends traqmate data, and this was all done within my comfort level! 930 man for comparison ran a 2 FLAT, that is unreal and to think the 2:12 is impressive too many people as well, that's in a different universe LOL!

I know the fact, i know what spring rates the gt2 and the gt3 runs and soft is a yoke when the runt the same rates just the gt2 has a harder spring in the rear so it impossible its softer, maybe your gt2 was a wrecked trached one
