Default My brain can't compute.

I find it hard to understand how this car handles in the wet.
I just got home from a fast drive back from Auckland through the back roads.
It rained all the way nearly.
If I had driven any of my previous P cars like I just drove this one, I would almost certainly have lost in many times, and just been a passenger when it went backwards towards the front and round and round.

It's truly remarkable. I would actually say astonishingly remarkable.

I'm going back to the track knowing what the TT is really like now.

Yes, very sure footed indeed in wet weather.

We got the storm over the weekend before it hit Houston. We got roughly 40" of snow at my house. It's a powerful storm!

Off topic, but how do you find the 360 compared to the TT?

I had one and spent that much on it just keeping it maintained that I could have bought a 996 to play with.
The sound was insane though, and the thrill for me was awesome. Pity about the issues.
