this is the bad thing about canon it too slow for taking sport photos.
also canon say that it might have auto focus for 1080p movies which I love.

Yes and more precisely cooling to the brakes. There is a lot of over engineering in a porche, that can't be said for the gtr, everything starts to overheat after just a couple of laps.

from the passenger seat (mike won't let me touch his car ), I could feel the car has execellent grip and traction but if enter a corner too fast, there was quite a bit of understeer. I guess that's normal for a 4wd car. I've been in his m3 also, I like the m3 much more.

GTR is fast but its too big and too high.
if the car was lowered like a lambo or ferrari then I think it would handle much better
