and i don't have a problem with shuffle steering when it's necessary (do not confuse shuffle steering with sawing). it is not necessary in that canyon. i would be AMAZED if that Lotus has a slower steering rack than my MR2, and i never had to regrip when driving that road.

You have to be a freakin idiot with absoulty zero drivin skills..
I do the 12mi. stretch in that video in 8:26 min. hat's an average speed of 87 mph. Now tell me why I would I should be heal and toeing when the gearing is perfectly matched at my shift points and engine braking is the proper way to set up the next corner without upseting the car with heavy braking and scrubing off too much speed, not to mention the sand and blind corners that need to be taken with caution.....

You are an idiot that has no clue how to drive in the canyons, if you can say you never had to regrip the wheel while drivin that canyon you would need arms like Gumby on a hot summer day.....

You have no clue as to what you are talkin about.....
