Its a tighter trackcar and the 3rd gear is a rip but its angry rumble and tight suspension makes it feel like it is alot faster than it really is. Would I kick it out of bed? Of course not it was a pleasure to track but a world of difference is an exaggeration and a put-down for a very capable 340.
