    It’s a blast. First car I ever drove on the track was at COTA wearing the gloves Michael Schumacher wore when he won Montreal in 2000.

    The F12 is a blast on the track. The torque is mind boggling especially in short straights between corners - you pounce from corner to corner. In stock form it understeers a little and u need to be millimeter precise. Throttle steers well when you breathe & tucks in the front nicely. Can’t really plant and turn & whip around the rear as it tends to push, but for as big of a car as it is, it is surprisingly nimble. Make a mistake and you’ve dropped a sea anchor.....But get it right and it can almost hang with the GT3s in the corners. They’ve got you on corner in/out and especially in the braking zones, but on the back straight once you hit 150 you can look in your mirror & know most cars can’t get there at straight end and you’ve still got half the straightaway AND you’re still pulling away hard.

    If you track, put some Novitec springs on- will decrease roll and especially dive. It’ll also stiffen up the suspension and dial out some of that understeer. Also, ditch the OEM P zeros. They suck- can’t deal with the heat, need to be constantly bled and you can just feel the tarmac just grate away your tread. Get yourself a set of the TDF Corsa tired. Much better.

    Good luck. It’s a wonderful car. Track it!
