    You don't race Ferrari sportcars to win races you do because your are Tifosi. If you want to win in sportscars you race Porsches ... a solid fact for the last 30 years.

    We do need a bit less air restriction to be competitive as in EXP we're running more restriction than GT2.

    I remain hopeful...

    That said we're really racing for the sport of it and to let the winds of the old days blow through what's left of our hair.

    Well, you seem to have a point there... give Ferrai a chance though... the myth couldn't have been built only by loosing against Porsche...

    A solid fact, but not rock solid. The Ferrari F430GTC has won "a few" races lately.

    Oh my that was fantastic to watch, I was sitting on the edge of my seat with excitement! Thanks to sims like GT5 I sent countless hours driving the Nordschleife, while anticipating every straightaway, turn, & challenge given to the P4/5C, I've learned the course extremely well.

    Everywhere but F1, Porsche dominates Ferrari. It never used to be that way but once the 911 was born Ferrari have played second fiddle.

    History leason:
    1. Le Mans - Porsche 917 immediately makes the Ferrari 512 irrelevant.
    2. Can Am - Porsche arrives, immediately kills the series because nobody can touch them, including McLaren.
    3. 911 (in it's millions of versions) - versus the Ferrari 308 up to the 458. I would not put my money on anything else other than the Porsche. There is a reason that 75% of the field in these sorts of races are Porsches.

    I absolutely love Italian cars but those damn 911 based race cars are simply awesome, and so bloody reliable. Maybe if Ferrari put as much passion and effort into their sportscar racing effort as Jim they would change the playing field.

    Best of luck Jim. I will be er, rooting for you :).

    In the past Jim has directed technical questions to the P4/5C Facebook page since that is monitored by the group at N.Technology. You'll get the best answer from them if you post it there.
