Clyde, you are right. The newer cars are very good.
I drove a Roma last weekend...pretty cool.
And not grotesquely over weight for 2020! On Oct 9, 2020, at 12:26, Clarence Romero Jr. <clyderomerof4 [at] gmail.com> wrote:

Very true!
TRs are the ultimate open road high speed cruiser.
The extra weight makes for a very resilient and comfortable GT.
That same weight doesn’t help track manners. Also, the rear subframe is bolted onto the rest of the car.
This causes some flex at extreme maneuvers...
Hard to beat one for a fast road trip in the 200-250 km/h range.
Solid as can be for that use... On Oct 8, 2020, at 21:10, Rick Moseley <ramosel [at] pacbell.net> wrote:
TR is a freeway cruiser... and very good for that.

Exactly! Though TR brakes, wheels and tires can be upgraded you
can't easily improve their HP to weight ratio. Their best use is
as a GT car or to attract members of the opposite sex.

I have a 1985 TR…It is a fun car to drive.
It is not a track car. It was designed to be a GT car, not a
track car.
People who buy TRs today aren’t looking for
a track car. If they were, they buy a 430 Scud or a 458 Italia
GT3.
Two problems with the TR for track
use…Breaks would not stand up to track abuse….The TR is too
heavy for the available bhp.
