From my experience, Shorter wheelbase cars like S2K/Cayman tend to give an illusion of fast lap times from my experience but it is the relatively heavier feeling M3s/GTRs that put out the best laptime. Boy that front grip on 130R...

I have zero doubts about that. I'm still waiting to see a single fast GT4... have run across so many running Hoosiers and none of them is even entertainingly fast.

Maybe 80 track days after the GT4 came out I'll find a fast one. Not holding my breath.

I suppose for a mountain road pure sportscar experience it is a good solution
