Yep, and you can go search on this board, and others, and find numbers published by those teams before all the hoopla hit about their weights being wrong in ITS.

And then, of course, there were some BMW's that were a bit more BMW than they were supposed to be. BMWs packing up and going home for the weekend when a cylinder head was displayed at tech registration on Friday night, tales of 325s that were 2.8L when the car changed hands, and so on.
