      Porsche used to claim the 911 had 'unique driving characteristics'.
      Going into a sharp corner at anything above 50mph in the old style 911 would definitely be described as unique.

    I was honoured to work there & so sad my health went wrong & I can no longer work at all now. The engineering on the T50 is just unbelievable, it's another GM work of art. I have been fortunate to work on quite a few car projects, including the XJ220 & the SLR. The T50 is design & engineering perfection. So pleased to see it's success. Best wishes to all my friends at GMA.

With his immense success driving touring cars, champ car and of course the 4 IndyCar championships, to see a man of his caliber and experience with the absolute best machinery on the planet really fall in love with the car, it sends home the message of how good the T.50 really is.

    I never really dove into Gordon until recently, despite growing up loving the F1. However, over the last year I have devoured every second of content with him that I could find. I truly believe he deserves to be on the Mount Rushmore of automotive giants. He and Koenigsegg and Pagani, though they don’t revolutionize the automotive industry in whole, represent the pinnacle of what it means to be a car enthusiast. Though money is made, it isn’t the goal. The goal is that almost unattainable perfect drive. That feeling when it all comes together. Congrats on a job well done to everyone involved.

    The original F1 road car was my poster car. Still is. When Gordan compares the 'flaws' in that design which were limitations of manufacturing of the era, but then he eliminated them in this T50 series. Blimey I thought I had attention to detail in life. The first F1 was and still is a Brunel level piece of engineering. The T50 is another incredible achievement. Sir Murray thank you for putting your energies into creating a second masterpiece (of the road world). Colin Chapman would have tipped his hat to you for sure.
