Most people share their info on here, and for the better of the experience for others, and things for others to try.
If one was to buy a G4S at the moment, most are offereing the ED as no added cost. im sure this will be the better way to experience this car, before the + comes out. as all G4S cars can be converted to a plus i see no negatives about that just all ++ .
yeah buy it , thrash it, have fun, and enjoy the hope ups - every car always requires hopups, and most of all if you can drive, then any car id say is competitive....

i see alot of lads change car to car and find makes no differant to there driving or times, and with more track tiime based in one car you can fine tune the car to ur driving style

its pretty much like a normal race car, they might be all the same models but youll always have one driver with a better setup to suit his driving...!

i am sure you will enjoy either G4S or G4+ - one just has improved on product parts , the next part would be Engine, Exhaust, Radio, and tires with car knowledge setup!

thats is all
