Well we've seen Matt Lowrance (sp?) and similar either normally aspirated or turbo early cars wipe the floor with 996/7 cups. The issue is they are blazing by in the straights but do loose in corner entry. So it seems if power to weight is similar the early car is at a big disadvantage. My thought was that the suspension geometry was primarily responsible, and I still suspect that's mostly the case, but with the data we have now I can't yet point to the actual reason.
