    The difference between 8.87 lb/hp and 8.33 lb/hp simply doesn't guarantee a win irrespective of other variables that influence lap times. No way.

    Ah, but my arguement is that there's no way that a 2750lb/310 flywheel hp -> 2750lb/256 whp -> 10.7 lbs/hp has a chance aginst a 8.33 lb/hp car... unless the driver in the 8.33 lb/hp car is suffering from CO poisining.

    I'm saying the finshing order at the run offs is direcly predicted by the hp/weight of the cars. 1st/2nd were in the 8.3 range 3rd was at the 9.7 range and 7th was in the 10.5 range. That is a disparity that's not being addressed to date, and will only be made worse at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca by all the up-hill straights.
