Probably a much better guess.

Just ran a Muira last night at one of Detrick's classic enduros. Mid engined Ferrari and Lambos at Mugello for 50 laps.

Don't ask where I finished.  :(

Outstanding car. Its dead neutral. And can really be thrown in to turns. Just better be consistant or the rear will pop out. Best lap was a 1:51.706. And holds my PB ghost.

Auto Racing, Bull Fighting, and Mountain Climbing.
Everything else are children's games that men play

Yeah.  Unfortunately, Mugello's on the schedule...

You got it. I went for it because I hadn't built one, like the car in real life and haven't seen any (apart from Hop's) online. I honestly didn't expect it to be as fast as it is. But, once built up i had a feeling that 265 slicks would be a good counterpart to the power and light weight. The main worry towards the end of the build was actually whether I was going to be able to hit the PI or have to try and under-represented car. Fortunately, I had that 15bhp to spare :D

So far, I'm liking the vehicle parity with this spec.  We had an aero-fitted bimmer, non-aero, bimmer-piloted bimmer, an RX8, and a Camaro on one track last night, and they were all competitive on seven of the nine tracks in series, and were good on sunset, as well.  We didn't try the ring, but a test session there with bimmer went ok.  I'm thinking the Camaro will get the nod from TTR.

Maybe you meant an RX-8?  It looks like I'll be throwing my rotary around for the series.  Now if OSR can just find a main sponsor... ???

Indeed I did.  I corrected the above post.  I've tried to do an FSU logo, but I can't get one to work out.  Guess I'll stick with Tire Rack, Nitto, and Cobra.
