OK....

quite a few people are running the R40's in this area.....My car gets better the more I run it..and trust it to do what I want...

You know how I know this is a good car?.......It always seems to be in the place that I want it.....Its hard to explain...like,I'm looking at the boards,and I want the car to hug tight,and the car just ends up there,making a perfect circle.......and I'm no great driver....

PLUS,this is the only car I've ever driven that can make a square circle turn at speed........We have a sweeper,at the end of the 80 ft straight.....but it really isn't gradual....it kind of just turns left suddenly,and then is a gentle half circle for around 40 ft...

I blast down the straight,lift 10 feet before the turn,turn the wheel and gas it..and the damn car just turns that angle like it was reading a road map.......My nitro tc3 didn't turn like that....

Anyway,have fun..need anything,let me know...
