The standard line in the the R&C is that you beat the driver, not the car.

Have you ever seen that Seinfeld where Kramer beats up on the elementary school kids in karate class?

There's no glory in that.

The other reason I like this subforum (Racing and Competition) is that it's a whole different mindset when you compete driver to driver in an evenly matched class in an actual race or competition.

From their standpoint, they were probably a couple friends shaking down their brand new cars and wondering why some lunatic was unsafely dive bombing them on the inside.

In this situation it would be more like Kramer beating up on kids equipped with swords lol.

Good driving OP, that track looks looks like a lot of fun.

I'm with ckit. I thought this was going to be a thoughtful comparison between two great cars.

Is your car S/C'd? You were pulling on them in the straights! Looks like a great track for s2ks.

I'd drive a $100k+ Porsche a little more conservatively than my S so I usually cut the drivers some slack.
