|---|---|
| Acceleration comments | Missed 3rd gear on three runs. Tranny seems a little reluctant during quick shifts. Not easy to launch well -- bog or boil. |

| Braking comments | No fade despite smoke and lots of odor. Solid, quick-responding pedal. |
| Handling comments | Quick responses, but still won't rotate as much as I like. Sharp and communicative to the point of nervousness. |
