That was a LOT more of a gap than I expected...

Pretty cool, but not surprising. The F1 cars at COTA a couple years ago were lapping 30-40 seconds per lap faster than the Porsche GT3 and Ferrari 458 Italia support classes. They would have lapped them every 4-5 laps...and the Porsches and Ferraris weren't slow by any means...about 6 seconds per lap slower than the MotoGP bikes there a few months later!! [bow_down]

The 2.5x weight factor is the killer.
