It'll get your hopes up for PS2, so no.

All the more reason to separate gunning and driving and letting drivers focus on driving instead of trying to split their attention and falling off cliffs (*cough*GDCVideo*cough*). It's like SOE is trying to go in two directions at once with vehicles when the game is going casual-only everywhere else. Sadly they'll probably fall onto the casual side (casualside?) when they realize that they need to make a choice
