I don't know why the GenII is more forgiving than GenI but it is. I've driven a GenI around Sebring and it was a blast. Much more challenging than my GenII and I loved it. To be fair, I've been tracking my GenII for nearly ten years so I've become very comfortable in it. Regardless it would be much easier to move from a GenI to a GenII than from a GenII to a GenI. If you can learn to drive a GenI fast you got something to be proud of.
