And the newer the car typically the worse they are. I had a student earlier this year with a Lancer Evo 10 (bone stock and practically brand new), the transmission kept putting the car in limp mode after the first few laps (it was over heating), then on the last heat of the day once it had cooled down and the transmission was cooperating the engine blew up. There are so many new performance cars that are just completely unable to be tracked. A Boxster on the other hand could run all day and at the end of the day it would drive just like it did at the beginning of the day.
