Thinking of getting a 360 to use for the odd weekend drive out, 3 or 4 track UK track days, and then probably a trip to Spa and a trip to the 'ring.

Whilst I know each drive will be a special 'event', how do 360s perform on the track. I've heard stories they can be a bit of a handful. If anyone can give me first hand experience of what their like versus an Audi R8 that would be ideal.

Thanks.

If you are going to do a few track days get yourself a CS they are fantastic on track and different class to the R8 on a track.

Have owned a standard 360 and r8.. much preferred the r8 on track to be honest. Its a very agile car, unbelievable grip and handling. Its also a lot of car for 50/60k. Make sure you turn the TC off though ;-)

But yeah get a CS ;-)

You talking about the R8 or the 360?

I regularly track my R8 and I have to say I find it outstanding, so I will need to be very convinced by a 360 if I am to swap it.
