That said, Simon's car was difficult to drive. A lot of power and very little grip. I took it for two laps and got a 62 something with it. I actually don't think it's the suspension, but tires. Last year when it had less power and better tires, the car was a blast to drive. Now it's very unsorted. The turbo kick was very unsettling on this particular course, coming on at the wrong times.

Last time you drove my car, i had RA1's and this weekend i had some Kumho Ecstata MX street tires. So that explains the lack of grip you experienced.

When i drove your car, i babied it around the track only driving at maybe 6/10ths and rarely got over 6000RPM and i think i did a 65something. Almost as fast as me trying to muscle the car around the track.
