Inspired by @IsuckAtDriving to do a proper comparison on the golf (one of the two vehicles "nerfed" in the update today)
The times I've shown in both videos can be improved by 1-3 seconds, however, the "nerfed" golf beat my prior WR with ease.
In the patch notes, it's stated the golf's power/acceleration has been reduced, which has eliminated the wheelspin and lack of traction issue prior to this update. Due to this, you can now fit better handling parts, along with elite nitrous, at the cost of a little less top speed and the 7 speed gearbox.
In some cases, now the golf is good on some tracks where it was not as viable prior update, since builds are now diverse.

Did this time over a week ago in 3 attempts. Never got to practice this track prior, but its def one of the nicer A+ tracks. 48 easily possible with refined lines and better nos management :)")

old vid i came across that was deleted with my older channel, thought id post it here since its still WR. (2:15 easily possible now tbh, i did 2:16.98 + plenty of mistakes in a single attempt w/ghost mode a year ago)")
