Message All the comments have been fair and accurate. The point was to go out, learn, and have fun!
I learned so much that day that I'm still processing it all. After seeing the video (I'm fortunate that someone filmed so I could even have something to review!), it is obvious that there is much I can improve in regards to line and driving technique. It all looks so different from inside the car!
I recommend to everyone to go to the track and learn both your car and driving technique.
Thanks!

:I'm a big subscriber to the Z32 as a very remarkable and capable handling car.
:So when there was a blunt statement where you thought the Z33 was better than the Z32 in handling, I naturally have to question its validity. I'm not saying it can't be, but for me to believe it, it needs to be well justified (in my experience, everyone speaks out their ass when it comes to Z32s)
:And after I realized that you both dismissed the handling of the cars based on what I saw in your video, I felt truth be told that you can't make that judgment based on your driving, and some other factors.
:To those with untrained eyes, they can't understand the difference in line and style that can make all the lap time differences in the world, which is the only easily earned quantitive analysis of handling (still not fully conclusive). So these lemmings will go on repeating any statement they are given without question. I personally can't agree with the Z33 statement without giving the Z32TT an equal drive.
:If the Z33 dusts the Z32 in an appropriate controlled fashion, driver and course controlled, then by all means, my hat is off to it.....
:But good job for going out there for fun. We need everyone to learn how to drive out there. Keep it up, you have a real nice looking Z, reminds me of mine ;)
:Peace
