Idiot drivers under-rate them because they aren't as shouty as many others.

You did mention F1, LeMans, and WRC - were you not talking about fitments?

I can't, and don't, speak for idiot drivers... I just pass them and keep going.

No not talking about fitments (whatever they are) but about people, with names like Tom or Michael or Walter (ie real people who know a bit about driving).

I just think you have to give credit to Government Motors for going to the NRing and actually posting a time. That car looked reasonably balanced for what it is, decent amounts of push, but not ridiculous amounts and with better tires would have been in GT3 territory which is frankly amazing. Every time GM, Nissan, etc post a good time with a normal car, you can only hope that your next Porsche will get very faster and better handling.
