I think its very tough to judge the competitiveness of a particular car based on
one or two events. You must consider the level of preperation, the drivers
skills,
the course design and the weather. All will effect the relative performance of
any
particular car.
The Nationals in Topeka were the last event to have all cars present with
equally
skilled drivers. I think Nationals proved that GS is a very healthy class with 5
different cars in the top 5 places.
At the upcomming San Diego Tour and LA Pro solo, I expect there may be more
Integra Type R's than Talons. If a Type R wins, will this mean it is "far
superior" to the Talon.
