Right on Dano, today's nannies are amazing.
Perfect workout for new nannies is the rough and loose Qualcomm surface.
When I am 75 and still on track I will then join the full nanny paddle shifting club.
New cars just flick a paddle and the car downshifts perfectly.
Lost is the H shift pattern, to down shift you had to know how to heal toe match rev with the clunky/delicate 915 syncros.
Takes skill to drive and make an old car survive on track.
For added driver finesse add the dual brake master cylinder with manual front to rear brake bias control that you must adjust as the brakes, slicks and brain heat up.
Our 560hp and 740hp dedicated 80s/90s IMSA GTO road race cars have no nannies.
We have only two vehicles with good nannies, a 1 ton diesel pick up for towing and the wife's G37.
The nannies in my 02 Corvette are first gen nannies, invasive and brutal when they kick on.
Leave those nannies on and they will torch your brakes on a track session.
All 3 of our race cars are no nannies.
At the track you can't drift or take credit for saves when you have full nannies on.
