Again I question whether or not the guy is as bad as some say. With traction control, abs brakes, and torque like a Mack truck, is he really doing all that bad? My way of thinking is that a Vette is nothing at all like a Porsche, and therefore is driven differently. I believe a good line is a good line, but if your car can handle a bad line due to exceptional braking, handling and acceleration, maybe the rules change a bit. I don't race (yet), but I am familiar with performance driving. I guess only a person who actually races can really say for sure. I still maintain that if he's so bad, how come he hangs with one of the most awesome 911s built?
