I do enjoy watching a well-driven slow car put it to a fast one.

What's the line about old age and treachery?.....

Its way more fun to drive a slow car fast than a fast car slow. Let's be honest, most owners of the latest super fast exotics will never ever drive them 10/10ths the way that TR4 driver is handling his car. That other guy in the sports racer should be embarrassed.
I miss my old TR4 btw.

What I see is a hopped up TR4/ with a hot shoe who has local knowledge Vs a Sports racer with less power and a less skilled driver with absolutely no familiarity with the course. You never really know what the reality is with these "Giant Killer plots" on dertube.

See exactly, and a lot of people miss out and it's so true. I'm not gonna go in my rant....and you guys sum it up anyway
but yeah TR8owner, fully agree!
and it's something you don't hear much from a 20 year old either. It's also good with how racing is, now we're so obsesseb with going so fast!! Notice how the best era's the cars were slower?

I agree I wish I was alive to live in the race on sunday drive on monday days.
I still really want to bring back the old 500cc motorcycle thumper class... Require like 185 wide hard all seasons and make it really a drivers class. Maybe run on cart and car tracks. Basically FSAE but a little cheaper to maintain, W2W, and down about 1/2 on power to keep it competitive..
