    heat soak plays a major factor. i guarantee by the end of those runs, that car was hot as hell.

    and fyi, 1000 pounds makes a HUGE difference. i beat a stock gt500 with only 348rwhp. id rape them now with 75+-rwhp more.
    Thats why I raced him only twice, and outcome was comparable both runs. There is no point in racing the same car 6 or 7 times and filming each one.
