No - not in my opinion. But then I am biased to the TLR offering
There are mods that can be done to any car. There are option parts that can enhance strength and/or visual appeal but the 22 is no more prone to this than many others out there.
Strength-wise, the 22 is one of the toughest cars on the grid - but again, I'm sure others will have tales of woe.
It can be edgy to drive but it can also be very fast. Others will point out that they haven't found it to be the easiest car on the grid to drive. Probably true - but that also depends on how you drive it and what you are assessing it for.
The point I'm getting round to is that you'll get a lot of personal opinions from racers here. Some will be sponsored by the brand they are (currently) promoting and others may not have gotten on well with certain brands - but that doesn't make those brands bad - and neither does it diss the experiences that those people have had.
But it does make it difficult to distinguish whats-what on a forum
If you're local to EPR, Herts and Stotfold, why not go down to one or more of them and get a feel for the numbers been raced and speak to real owners - both at the front of the grid and the back. Trackside setup assistance, emergency spares and help is worth far more than the 0.1second per lap that the current best thing since sliced bread will (claim to) offer you.
