Esprit more direct

Postby Tony Smith » Wed Jun 01, 2005 10:01 pm

I think you'll find the GTA in standard form a bit softer than an Esprit with the steering being less sensitive and lighter (than a non PAS one obviously). GTA will understeer more but this is easily rectified by fitting wider front wheels. In my opinion the Lotus would probably be ultimately quicker in very extreme use but not as civilised or easy to live with as a GTA
