Yes, that's why I think this car will miss the weight target....2750-2800 is what my guess is. And with that, it will need more than 200hp (or at least an equal amount of torque, which would require a low pressure turbo) to really be decently quick.
I think some of the confusion about my standpoint is that I am not interested in the car unless it does really well, because the aftermarket is of huge importance to me. The car needs to be really damn competitive out of the box otherwise it wont gain aftermarket support and I won't be able to mod the shit out of it.
