Here we go again. You're right Chris *nobody* can run with Bob in any car.
He's good. He's very good. Doesn't mean Mark isn't. Get off the "driver"
routine. We aren't trying to class cars with local event results here. We
are talking about BIG events, with proven drivers.

And how many of those underprepared ESP cars do you know anything about?
Factory Cobra R's, $1000 + rear differentials, hand built torque-stepped
headers, largest wheels you can get, and on and on. I'm sure Steve's car
(built by Ames and SLP) is nowhere near close...... Okay, whatever you say.
And the "level of development", well how about flares, and bigger wheels,
and a better diff.?, and a 3.2 engine? But, of course, nothing else can be
done because it's Bob's car. Get real.

Just compare the times to other classes! This is not imagined.
SHEEH!
