i saw that too, in the second video he says that the car can keep up with cars in the corners that have over 400hp.
All im noticing is that the chassis and suspension with some basic race modifications really makes the 86 look flat through every corner without the slightest bit of shuffle from the back. To me thats amazing, because i usually dont see production cars be flat and fast like that in the corners unless they had body modifications or heavy suspension modifications. Sometimes those cars look a bit loose in the back also.

Not sure, but apparently a second GPRM 86 has been built:

Why so much camber on the front wheels? Genuine question. Is it because of increased handling in the corners or something?
