930kg? iirc mine was 890kg. I think, you can shave more time (if you're driving the NA ver).

To date, I clocked a 7:18sec. I think I can shave another sec or two off that with some suspension tweaking.
7mins 18secs? Wow that's fast! You mean 7.18secs, right?

You lose a bit of responsiveness but the corner exit speeds go up so much that it doesn't matter.
True, but that don't be stock car race. If I can upgrade suspensions, lsd & tranny, I can totally pull out 59secs.

but other than that, I do agree with you. Low hp car require a lots of rear suspension tuning.
