Haha both, actually. The Carrera GT is my dream/miracle car.. If only I were poor enough to own one.

Is autothrottle a mod for the CGT? How is it engaged?

Oh, and best launch method for the CGT?

while on flat surfaces or downhill surfaces you just let the clutch out no throttle. It's a touch trickier up hill at stop signs with traffic......ASK ALZILLA how I know this

Alzilla not me.

I don't know that I've stalled one but once in my life if that. It's 1000 times easier to drive than my GT3 Cup cars were.

You let Alex drive it? Wow your a nice guy. So the clutch really isn't a problem if your a experienced standard driver?

I've seen lots of people stall them. So I can't answer that. I guess some people don't understand light weight flywheels.

The OP is correct they aren't fun in traffic because they are more fun in triple digits. I've never driven mine above 7/10's and I've been in the 170's in it. The cars are a machine that does exactly what you ask. You floor it and it spins out of control. You throttle on correctly and it rewards you. They are Spectacular with a capital SPECTACULAR.

Hey, don't look at me! I don't have the video either!

Thanks again for letting me drive your CGT, Mark. It was a day that I'll never, ever forget!
