From my limited expierience on road courses and a few race schools that Ive done it was always preached that weight was everything. Lighter car meant you could brake later and corner faster. The laws of physics cant be overcome. Same car with same horsepower, same driver but 200 lbs lighter will be faster every time. Ive been on the track and watched Miatas school guys in Vettes. I got schooled in my Viper going through corners by a guy in a Mini.
I just bought a Cobra which has always been my dream car. It was ALMOST everything I wanted. It has a 351 in it. My perfect car would have had a big block. For me i dont care about the 100 or 200 lbs or the few seconds faster on the road course. I want the big block. Heres the best part about these cars. I can always drop in a bb and be totally happy.
