please post the video when available. I am very excited to see how the LFA stacks up to the GTR on such a short track. I think its lighter weight and RWD platform will help it to fly through the corners. The GTR is heavy and tends to understeer when really really pushed. The STIG is one of the best drivers I have ever seen and I know he is the man to extract all of what the LF-A can offer
