Notes - No changes were made to the settings during the races or the 
car testing. The results for the car testing could probably be 
improved by not spinning the wheels of the line.
 
This is my favourite car in the game for a number of reasons; It's fun
to drive, very forgiving for a rear wheel drive car and is probably
the quickest all round limited edition car.
 
The four wheel drive cars may be quicker off the line, the Sylvia LM
corners better and others may have better top speeds. But when it
comes to coming into a corner fast, braking hard and late with enough
steering to stick the car sideways before you power out of the bend
with a big grin on your face then this car leaves the others eating
its dust.
 
Of course I am a little bit biased being British, but considering how
pants the Aston Martin cars are (the showroom TVR's aren't much
better) then perhaps I should be forgiven for waving the flag a bit.
 
In terms of the GT Cup then obviously this car leaves the other
competitors miles behind. I think that the fastest lap times are
comparable with the other limited edition cars and that with more
practise could probably be improved by up to a second.
