Instead of getting defensive and responding with some absurd straw-man argument perhaps re-read what I said. I didn't say it was slow and didn't even bring up lap times. It is the feel of running lower power and a lot of traction that I don't really dig. 17.5 TC gives me enough of that to keep me happy. 13.5 is fun also but it can't seem to take hold as a class locally. No need for me to run mod. I get the new TSR 21.5 is faster than the old. I have both and like that the power of the new motor makes for a more lively car IMO. Let me repeat, IMO.
