Honestly I'm not sure these guys have the talent to really appreciate the car on track. But the comments on steering stood out to me.

Agreed. But surely every new review will mention it.

Completely agree with this. Other than good suspension settings, I'm not sure what else you need to go fast on the track, reliably. It's coming from the factory already optimized.
