You just have to ask, what's your priority?


Not sure the 2.5 is that much heavier. The only Lotus I have encountered on a Road Course, Gingerman, I left behind in a WRX. He would catch up some in the turns, but I would pull away in the straights. He might of sucked as a driver, I don't know, I know I am not all that good.
