Interesting, I wish there was a combined database of all the years, that must have taken some time to compile.

My experience around here with the "F-Troop" is that there was a group of guys that all ran Carreras. Scotto, Burger, etc., who are OUTSTANDING drivers (they all bought Cup cars). If you check the F podiums for 2000, they dominated that class. Now, query whether that's car or driver. . .

Interesting that the prepared SCs have done so well. The good engine builders can get a lot of power out of a 3.0, the chassis is 110 pounds lighter than the near-identical early Carrera (915 box), tires and wheels the same. PLUS you can slot the suspension and run huge brakes, a 3.8 RSR wing, crank trigger and a different R&P.

What's not to love about THAT? (. . . the budget!)
