... while sitting out the snow that's falling and playing GT3 on PS2, I was cruising around my computer and found a Lap of Watkins Glen from a couple of years ago on my ext HD, when I had the old camera system Kinda cool.

I of course like driving the Camaro in GT3, but there are so many other nice cars in the garage too. One of my best all around cars is the Mazda 787B. That thing is fast and handles! Last night I tweaked the SS to the weights, hp, susp, and brake specs of my own car and did some laps around Apricot Speedway with Medium-soft race tires.

I put the same tires on a Viper GTS (stock), a tweaked Motorsport Elise, and a BMW 328i.

Camaro time was around 1:30
Viper GTS was around 1:29-1:30
Motorsport Elise around 1:26
BMW 328i around 1:45

Pretty impressive that a $23k camaro with about $10k in tweaks is about the same as a $75k Viper GTS. Not sure how accurate the game is, but I think it's realistic....and at least it's with the same driver. The Lotus is light, has 344hp, and DOWNFORCE!

In GT1 or GT2, I had the race Camaro. I never could figure out how to get it in GT3. I did every race, but never got the race version. I think I'll do a search for it now.
