The lap times and cost of GT4 is virtually identical to TCR, yet people say TCR are too slow and too expensive - "overpriced four cylinder buzzboxes".

Something doesn't add up!

“The way they (GT4 & TCR) do the laps is a little bit different,” Eversley explains. “The rolling corner speed for a TCR car is actually pretty high. They are pretty similar in speed but they do the laps completely differently. For every TCR session [at COTA], I was almost completely flat through Turns 17-18-19 around that triple carousel; in the GT4 car you can’t even come close to doing that. So it’s pretty neat how [the TCR cars] make the speed up, but they are probably more fun to drive because they have that kind of aero and you can really push the limits of what is allowed.”
