Author's Review
I actually use this car to race with 2 different race clubs, Porsche Club of America and Chin Motorsport. The PCA of course has lots of Porsches, but Chin has all sorts of cars from Neon's to Corvette's and everything in between. And I can say that in either club this car can hang with the best of them. It might not have the speed that some of the other cars do, but with it's mid engine giving it a 50/50 weight distribution it can also carry more speed in some areas that might be a little more tricky for rear engine cars.
The handling is very forgiving, especially with the Porsche Stability Management system on, giving anyone their most optimal amount of control.
If you're looking for a car that can really handle and give you great control to start out with, this car is perfect!!
