larry connor holds the fa track record in scca national racing at road atlanta in his rt41 at 120:827. this weekend the pro mazda pole time was 118.:640....over 2 seconds faster. the top 21pro mazdas were faster than connor's lap record
looks like big h/p, sequential no-lift upshift, left foot brake with cluthless downshift, skinny tires, and traction control make about 2 seconds/lap advantage.
do any of you long time competitors think that some equalization steps would be considered by the comp board? fair competition is a good thing, but it seems the pro mazdas were included in fa a little prematurely.
i hope this doesn't sound like sour grapes, but flame away!
regards,
bill
