Yeah, but doesn’t have a lot more torque? It’s gotta be ruff on the Hoosiers though. Like I said, I was being pretty obnoxious with the car just keeping my foot in it, and the tires grew 6 PSI in the front after my 1st run. Good thing the Victos like heat.

I don’t know, for whatever reason I’ve always had a soft spot for them, but for some reason a Type R just seemed like a more practicle winter car. It is a hatchback after all 🙂 .
