    Except that in STL, the formula is Mor Powah, Mor Weight. Someplace like RA is about overcoming aero drag. Weight plays little to no role in that. The climb is theoretically going to make weight count 'cause you gotta put potential energy into all that mass as it gets to the top of the Corkscrew.

    EDIT - Of course, you get it all back coming DOWN...

    K - does that include the additional energy gained for taking the Zanardi line?

    Default Just to clarify

    A ITS Prelude with a 2.3 motor cannot run as a STL? Asking before I start digging.

    Nope. STL has a 2L limit. 2.3L is STU.

    Rick, go with a type r and run in ITR as well. I think that is now eligible for STL. Maybe ask Greg first though, kinda confused on if you can do that or not but I think you could. Then we could run together again! :-)
