Yes, I'm a bit quicker in terms of power but it isn't as dramatic as I thought it would be. IMHO the biggest difference in a "race" setting is the brakes. I'm going to get quite nervous when he buys race tread. 
It also helps that he's become one heck of a driver in a short period of time.  |
Thanks, Sammy. What can I say, I had a great teacher
