I drove my 123 car this weekend to compare the rides between the two. Gotta say, its a better driving car until about 50mph than the 126. Goes around corners faster, feels more solid, and has a better turning radius (or it seems to).
After 60mph, the 123 car runs out of power (non turbo) which tends to make it feel maxed out.
I also prefer the big steering wheel in the 123 car.
Again, bit cars have rebuilt suspensions and recent shocks all around.
