The F1 GTR is amazing, but it needs a bigger track to stretch it's legs.
Yes, agreed.

I've talked to Bill twice at Tudor race weekends during the practice/fan meets.

He's genuinely a nice guy, humble and accessible to fans.

Looked like Bill ran a 1:29 without the chicane. Didn't look like his hands were too busy. That car is rock solid. Fantastic sound and love the video!!!
