He's pulling away in the straights, that should be an easy fix and you'll still be around 1/3rd of the price of his car :D Great driving, by the way, I wish I had balls half the size of yours.

I have not found any evidence of a confirmed GT500 lap time, so unless you have any, we don't know that.

Took her off the trickle charger and went for a drive after a month of pause as I had been out of state. What a freaking fantastic car, it's crazy how good it is to drive even after 6 years.
