Dunno why the PP is lower on my NSX, it’s one I have never driven or touched before. My other is modded all to hell.

Surprised by how much torque the Skyline has.

Agh, I thought I had the NSX in the bag lol. I was milking the hell out of it.

The supra was weird for me, turn 4 or 5 I think that turbo was lagging so bad.

Skyline was probably the easiest to drive of then all. Just feels heavier. But lots of traction.

The NSX drives on rails, and it really doesn’t like braking, the Rear end cuts loose.

The biggest thing I noticed is it needed really light trail braking and turn in inputs. Needed to set the car up for the corner early and give up a bit on entry. It doesn’t like being manhandled. Pretty much opposite of the Skyline. The Supra really has a narrow powerband.

Surprisingly, I did the least amount of laps in the NSX. Maybe I'll give it another go before the month ends.

You're using the first gen. It's supposed to be the '02 from brand central.

Opposite for me, even tho I've used the R34 for as much as I could in the career, I've never driven it stock. Lol. Stock suspension made it too loose for me, so I'm scrubbing a lot of speed and time. So it was actually the hardest for me to drive.

Old car may not be slower though. I’ll have to buy an 02’ and try it.

Oh I'm sure your time is going to be significantly better. I don't like the way the '92 drives stock. It made me bias against the '02, but the '02 drives so much better (or at least it suits my driving style better).

It is certainly easier to drive than the old car. Gearing also feels a bit better.

Did you rev up past 8K? I usually notice the games shift change in the first 3 seconds and for this one it was around 8K.

I was, but I don’t think it was necessary to hold the gear that long. I’ll post up reference lap video later.
