It's easy if you don't know what you're doing. The CGT isn't an easy car to drive. I wonder if the detailer had to take responsibility for it.

It ended up being VERY messy. There may have been a bottle of wine and a girlfriend involved. The car was not in good shape. Three cracked wheels and lots of damaged carbon fiber. I don't think most people appreciate that you have to be a well above average driver to drive a CGT well. I have driven one on a track and it is NOT FORGIVING.
