V10 R8 and other goodies at the track

so i was at Mt Tremblant Circuit yesterday and today. i saw a v10 R8 for the first time... pretty nice looking car... only thing i didnt like was that the exhaust is fake!

the silver/orange GT3RS that was parked in front of me was making me jealous... he was such a good driver too.

quite a few drivers spun off the track... i fish tailed a little on certain sections but after those incidents, i just took it easy. no major problems throughout the two day event.

there was 1 e90 m3 that broke his steering arm after going off road and another elise which rubbed up against the guard rail. but nothing major.

i meant the car has fake exhaust tips... just like the IS-F.... like they didnt bother connecting the tips to the actual muffler.
