It's so stupid. It's actually more stupid than the guys complaining how the car is not track ready when they don't even go on the track.
99% of people themselves are not track ready. I learned that first hand when I saw how much more my Z06 had to offer than what I could do with it, even after 2 full days of instruction, I was running the car to maybe 50% of its potential. All the smears on the walls also indicated that others SHOULD have run the car at 50% of its potential. All the smears belonged to club-members (not students). One of which, was a very nice ZR1 blue.

Not one student could keep up with the instructors at Spring Mountain in a ZR1...while they drove stock Camaro SS's on PS2 tires, lol.
