Yeah I saw that too.
Seems like the Tuscan is a bit of a handful in the wet.

I'd imagine anything weighing 900kgs with 535bhp going through the rear wheels would have your buttocks chomping on the seat-fabric!

It sure is a beautiful wee beastie though.

Watched the Tuscan and the Chev Camero going at it in the wet at the Manfield meeting about a month ago.
Suprisingly in the wet the TVR whoooped ass. Shame there's nothing else in the Super GT series that can keep even close to those two. There's a GT3 porker, but that looked way off the pace.
