Default TC4

Guys, let me start by saying that I am in no way an official spokesperson for AE, but I have been sponsored by them for about 10 years. The TC3 is still a great car and there are other great cars on the market -- there is no doubt. However, when the TC3 first came out I know it took me awhile to tailor my driving and tuning to its potential. Once I did, the car was awesome! And undersand that the TC3 has had over 5 years of subtle tuning refinement to bring it to where it is today.

I ran my TC4 on carpet for the first time last week (my setup is posted in the TC4 thread) and I was amazed how quickly it changed direction and reacted! It was also stable and easy to drive, despite very limited track/tuning time. Although it is a refinement of the TC3, the TC4 is still a NEW car with a nearly infinite amount of tuning options to experiment with on the track. I guarantee that hindsight and track time will yield the current negative comments premature as the TC4 reaches its true potential at the leading edge of the touring car market.
