I have never driven the track but watched SSTHO drive it at decent GT3 pace recently and this was fast! Very smooth fast hands!
I'm not so sure my pace is "decent" anymore!

Haha, well LSD and slicks make a gigantic difference alone. Then add the CUP weight, gearbox etc. we are talking apples and oranges..

I'm attending a 2 day track day @ ORP on June 18/19; running clockwise 1 day & counterclockwise the next. It's mainly a beginners group but if you're interested give James @ Scan a call; should be an awesome 2 days with a great group of guys.

Thanks Nan/Ed - I'll see what my timing is like to take delivery of the RS. Not too sure at the moment as I still have to work on logistics. Would be fun as I have never been to ORP.
