Isn't Nathan's CSL now a somewhat 'de-tuned' powered version of a CSL...?

Yeah, but it will still do a 1:17.6 round Snett, even though its missing 30bhp.

It's much easier to drive;

We found that if we set it up with a sharp front end it became undrivable as the tyres wore out, so it has a slight bit of understeer built in. I think we also run wider front tyres than the CSL Cup cars.

I was just quite surprised at how much Steve had to work the steering through the corners.

i would tend to disagree in as much as not many cars gearboxes can stand torture for track or race. most disintegrate with driver error (wrong gear and missed clutch) but the CSL SMG has neither of those but sometimes can go wrong

in other words it is not faultless but it does rule out driver error and damage which at the end of the year can help

most race cars gearboxes are consumables esp with bigger bhp and need rebuilds.

That's because I looked after it so well John.
