It's not the car, it's the driver. The scourge around here are the kids with 3 series BMWs that think they are the greatest ever.

The long straights where horsepower shines will only get you a few seconds, each corner can lose you a second. Road racing isn't just about power.

They seem to have their software bugs worked out, and the mechanics have a year of working on them. Should be a good season. Would love to see them take LeMans again.

So, is GM going to get a hot hatch, or do they think that the market is saturated and that would make it unprofitable?
