First let me say that posts like yours just make me tired.

Please, Please read the total of posts in the discussion before you reply.

Christ, we can argue forever about classes, rules, equalization formulas, what happened in the past, Shelby this, Ken Miles that.

Believe me, I know about the various rules on production classes, prototype classes, formula whatever classes. I raced DP, EP, FP, CP, BS, AS, FF. FA, F5000, ETC. ETC. and I fought the rules just like anyone else.

But none of that has anything to do with this thread.

Now, back to the point of this thread.

Of course the cars are not equal.

That is the point.

What car works the best as a standard unit as offered to the public in the manufacturers ads or websites.

That's it!!!

Nothing more.

.What we are after here are the differences, not the sameness, not some equalized formula. Just what you build as a standard

There are no winners or losers here.

You give me a group of properly designed "replicas" with the same engines, gearboxes, and rear ratios and I will bet that I can be within 2 seconds in each one at Willow.

Now, if some are not "properly designed", well then, the numbers will differ.

But that’s the breaks.
