MR hate... a love note
One of the reasons I mod, is to help defend and build up the SST members. When users are constantly badgered, they are going to go other places. It's time to fight and set the haters straight, nicely. 9 times out of 10 the true haters have no clue what they are talking about. The ones that truly argue and feel they have to write on someone's car or belittle someone because they have a third pedal are the ones that don't understand the technology behind it, or care to understand.
So yah, keep learning, set people straight, and the ones that refuse to listen, ignore them. It's about the time we all band together and start producing specs and all the information we can about the SST.

Let's not miss the point. There a lot of positives associated with the auto, but it's hardly the ultimate panacea. There are vivid constraints associated with its use. Denying them, going as far as to purposefully and consciously obfuscate the issue, is nothing short of dishonest and of no help to the community.
The other day I had to rock a neighbor's car out of a snowbank, going from reverse to second and back over and over, shifting the car's weight until it was freed. You know how to do that, right? Try that in the auto with the same degree of (err) control.
i dont want to do this , i like you a lot, but you should drive one.
It is very similar feeling as to driving a dog-box sequential with a butterfly. It is not exactly like that, but this one is close.
Turn off everything and go for manual mode, you will love it. And yes, if you dont like butterfly then use the "old seems like sequential method" use the stick. So you wont leave both hands on the steering.
This SST is damn good for what it is.
two things drive me a way from it in racing, and that has nothing to do with " im not being in control or less pleasure to drive".
One is the price , second is a weight. Actually if i think deeper is four... LOL
the maintenance and serviceability too.
But other wise, talking about "less driver car" and "computer does instead of me" etc, childish. Not one true race car is lacking computerized equipments and the only thing is give them boundaries in that field , the rules to make them not so much faster as they are. Or try to make them progressing slower .
And no one can argue the race car is not a driver car, i hope ... LOL
This SST is truly astonishing for a DD weekend warrior car for the price range and the performance its deliver.

ps: now i feel bad.. so i put one picture up for you
i loved this car , but i like my X 1000000000 times better and believe it or not , i think both car is challenging to drive at the limit, despite the fact the X has all around computer vs the fully mechanical evo 2 integrale

While there, the gentleman who made the original claim posted to the effect of not being a cornering pilot. He said that he runs at the strip and takes a spirited ramp once in a while. I can find his post, if needed. Somehow, well, actually, we know how, this got twisted and turned into a mere facsimile of its original intent.
