I'm sure the GT was easier to drive, but which car did you have more fun driving?

Well, when I drive the GT it is much faster than the GT-40 and when I drive the GT-40 it is much faster than the GT.
My Dad is a bit more conservative on the track than I am, so I honestly don't know which car accelerates faster. If I had to guess I would say the GT-40 is a bit quicker but all the noise could make it feel faster than it is!?
Given a choice of which car to track I'd choose the GT...my Dad, the GT-40. I think the GT-40 gives you more warning before loss of control than the GT that's probably due to the generous sidewall on the GT-40? My dad spun both cars (no damage), he commented about how quickly he was facing the wrong way on the track in the GT. No squeal from the tires, just instantly backwards. BTW, I happened to be looking in the side mirror when he spun.
Thats one image I won't soon forget!
