Default Re: GEN I VS GEN II at the track (Roadcourse)

Texas, I think you sprung our secret. And 580 ft-lbs from a fairly stock engine helps.

No, it's not real racing. Yes, the driver and experience matters. But give an old 90,000 mile Gen1 on the original ball joints some credit for doing pretty well against Gen2 and Gen 3 cars at the NY/CT-NJ AX.

Driving the underdog always helps the driver's mindset. And newer cars being better should help make sure there's an even better car next year. It's all good.
