These guys are not amateurs. They are professional drivers because they get paid to drive. Not professional race car drivers, but they are professional drivers none the less. They have been driving professionally for decades, and when the magazines do these tests, they usually use the more/most experienced drivers they have to get the most accurate results. To call them amateurs is not at all correct. They drive for a living, and they drive performance cars in performance situations a heck of a lot more than the rest of us. Even the most dedicated track rat doesn't have near the experience that these guys have. Why? It's their job, they do it for a living, which makes them a professional, btw.
