Agereed. That is insane driving. The car looks pretty notchy on the handeling part but if you get it right, it is incredibly fast around any track.

Check out the split screen of the ACR vs. the ZR-1. The ZR-1 "saws" on the wheel quite a bit.

Nice comparison. It appears that the ZR1 driver is fighting for tire grip a bit more than the ACR. That and the ACR driver appears to be a lot smoother. However that could be attributed to the zr1 driver hanging it out more on less grippy tires.

Also the ACR has adjustable aero correct? That may be more the factor than tires.
What are the tires the two cars use?

I don't know off the top of my head. But yes, the ACR has adjustable aero. It's pretty interesting.
