New Ford GT and Gran Torino

These are my first ZZ cars, so here's a little rundown on what I think of them:

Gran Torino:

I put the 34k motor in this car and drove it around for a while. The speed is ok, but the steering is what makes this car great. The left and right turning is almost perfectly equal, and it's not too tight or too wide. Excellent steering! However, the car does make a bit of noise, and the battery charge only lasts for two or three minutes, so it's not a perfect car. But it's very good nonetheless.

Ford GT:

This thing absolutely flies, and the battery charge can even last for 10-15 minutes. My Gran Torino can't touch the speed that this car is capable of, even though the Torino has a faster motor installed. The GT is also very quiet, too. However, the steering is kinda crap. Right turns are very wide and left turns are very sharp. This was one of two GTs that RS had, and only this one was blue, so if I wanna take it back I'll have to wait until they get more in. But I probably won't take it back.....I think I'll be able to improve the steering.

It's really a shame that the ZZ cars aren't very consistent. I've read on here that the older ones have poor steering and the new ones have good steering, and yet my cars are totally opposite of that. My old one (01A04) has great steering and my new one (08A04) has poor steering. Oh well, nothing's perfect. The GT still rocks, though.
