I think even the GT-R would be pretty "unstable" on the track without the GT-R electronic's. Then again, the Juke-R does have to manage the roughly 800 lbs difference in weight.

I'm sure they've addressed it, but I still think this car is going to be interesting to drive. The GTR is huge, which helps it stay planted. This car is tiny. I'm not saying it's going to be undrivable or anything... Just that it's going to take some skill and/or restraint to keep it in a straight line
