Wow - what an excuse filled writeup.

Road America was the first road course time trial on the 2008 One Lap menu, and also the defining run for the GT-R. At 3900 pounds, it’s a car that likes long straights and fast corners. It isn’t nearly as happy on circuits with tight corners, where understeer limits its responses.
And this seems to go against everything everyong else says about the car.. now it can't handle tight short circuts.. but loves long circuits?

Hmmm... something is fishy yet again... because all the Japanese tests show the GT-R crushing any opposition on short courses.
