I was curious if anyone knows anything about how the new GTO is handling on a track or autocross?
Does it need big brakes and worse yet does it push as bad as a FBody? Wondering how it sizes up to an Fbody, esp since it will come out with an LS2 later on. |

All the reviews I've seen on it where fairly dissapointing on handling. Most said it handled good for it's weight, but that you can't disguise the fact that it weighs 4000lbs. Also, it was pointed out that the suspension is designed to deal with the really rough roads they have in Australia, so all the suspension components are pretty heavy, which can't help much either.
