I'll take a wild guess you've never road raced?

They had to actually pull power off of their initial set up because the car was carrying too much power through the turns. It's also a race car so it's gutted with a lot of carbon fiber. I think it weighs about 2300 lbs?

Well the problem is that suspension is what makes you faster on a road course, not raw power. Especially with a front wheel drive where understeer becomes an issue. That's why Honda's are so popular with the road racing crowd. Small, light, with an amazing suspension so the lack of power really doesn't matter when they can still outhandle most other cars.

Exactly what I told them, however nothing I can do since it’s all planned by GM.

Think you can make it to the Lordstown Plant event later in the summer?
