Considering CSL over atom is...it could get license in HK, so could be driven day to day ... over a normal M3 'cos it is not only lightened, but lots of the parts are track ready....I guess only thing needed to be change are the tires... Resell value is stable ... etc.... but still thinking only...

for the GTR...the overheating problem is pretty serious, the max I could manage is 3 flying laps straight, engine and transimission temp would reach dangerous level... need to spend so much into cooling systems if order to go longer...

will investigate further into the CSL and see....

Cheers,
Mike
this is normel for all road sports car 3 laps is max.
save the money and dont mod the GTR and get the CSL

agreed and more importantly, just when u get into the mood for a fast lap, its time to cool down. its like takiig a cold shower in front of a hot naked girl! really dont know how they managed that lap time on the nurburging
If all sports car can not handle track for more than 5mins, then god knows how it did the time at nurburging.
