I did go from a modded Turbos to a GT2. I was very reluctant to mod this car as it is so good out of the box. Everything felt lighter,balance and precise. The gear box much better and smooter during high revving. Gt700 mod will defintely get you going sideway if smashing it like your Turbos. I really like it on the roadcourse track but not sure about 1/4 miles. In summary, I have not met a GT2 owner that didn't like the car.

This is what I've heard from other also! My first event with the car after mods will be an Autocross, where I can drift, spin and push the car hard to find out its limits without the fear of walls or other vehicles

Sorry if I am mistaken but this look like Bajo's Protomotive GT2. I can see the boost controller set up.
