Who knows, driver skill, wrong circut? lotta variables in racing.

Read the thread, the guy isnt luying, the results are on the official website. Convinces me that if driven properly the RX-8 is competative inthat class - to which there was some doubts, and the lower class people were thinking about trying to have it moved to it demolishes.

And thats without any changes to the seup or suspension, which while they like it say it needs looking at when you brake sharply - to much roll forward(?).
