So i know that GT is a complete race car, but how does it compare to the ACR? Is it leaps and bounds better? Curious of the power delivery difference and how each of those cars fair.

Are you saying you can't mount something stickier on the Senna (same size) due to component strength? That'd be interesting, not sure I had the right take away from what you said.

Cause I did that in Forza and it worked out great :D

@treynor Not to offend the Master, but did you ever address this question? Made a joke at the end but was a serious question. Just curious, obviously will never become an issue for me lmao, but really got my brain going.

That's correct. Typically in the conversion from street to race car, the hubs, some suspension components, and brakes are changed. Stability and traction control also typically need to be reprogrammed. Finally suspensions and alignment settings need to be changed.

I'm sure it's possible to fit on slicks (assuming you can find them in street sizes, often not the case) but without the other changes the impact on lap times will be smaller than you might otherwise get, and the risk of mechanical failure is higher.

I applaud you for being a car guy not just purchasing to try to gain something. Honest as honest can be!

I have to admit your updated posts reminded me of El Torito on Cannery Row. Dinner yesterday, so good!

Can you even go to El Torito on cannery row right now?

Just saw this on YouTube. Looks like a handful but an awesome drive. RHD right hand shifter also.


Yah - got to love the slip angles from bias ply tires. And what those cars lacked in cornering grip & braking , they made up with LOTS of horsepower.

That SuperPerformance 50th Anniversary GT40 MKI is SO nice. You ordering one? ;)

By the way, the photo of your pup sitting next to your wife is pretty cool. I mean, he's just looking so relaxed and focused on the road. LOL.
