The gearing / acceleration of his fiat flat footed from 13 would put him at too high a rate of speed through bishops.
He flat foots it out of 13, sets car with a slight brake then applies constant throttle through bishops to keep rear planted
pretty safe way for a car without a big wing to keep it planted
Fiat drives a bit different than our beetles

My wanna be Aero Beetle goes through Bishops as fast or faster than the Fiat. The Fiat is seriously awesome though...wish I had it.

The Ian, the GT3DE, the M3EvoBr drive flatout.
I just need to drive as fast as needed for 1st place at a Time Trial, and well below my pace at DE Cup to run with the pack.
@85Gold, 10 minutes before my track session, there was heavy rain, you're right, the Boss in dry conditions is faster than the Fiat in wet Sebring. Feel free to register da Boss in TTU, easy trophy against the Fiat.

b/c the fiat would go up in flames if he tried to consistently do that for 12 straight laps. watch all his DE videos, he limps around claiming to be wating on others but its so the fiat want blow up after 3 laps of hard consistent driving.

We're fine. We breake some stuff but we don't driver around paranoid like Fiat drivers.

I didn't say da Boss was faster at Sebring just faster through Bishops on street tires
You going to bring the Fiat to the 2013 OLOA and show us how it's done.

I call BS, I looked at NASA TT times for that event and Mark did not mark it as a rain session. As you are fond of saying no data it didnt happen. Fast times were also very close both days.

OLOA 2013 is Cayman or Cayenne. Easy Podium in class. Fiat cannot take the abuse of OLOA 2013, that's like 5 years worth of use in one week.

Just check the session right before at mylaps.com, it was a Club Race and it was on downpour conditions. We ran on drying conditions but still wet. Sunday was dry, and super hot and humid (98 degrees), faster lap times for everyone, except my Fiat as it had already entered limp mode for the rest of the event due to a sensor failure at the end of Saturday.

Fiat is too low for public roads, and OLOA would ruin the expensive underneath carbon fiber and fiberglass parts. If OLOA could allow trailers to avoid road use, it would be fine, but that would take the fun out of OLOA.
Pepper TT is an easy podium. 1st place would take a better effort, that's what EvoMSit is for, combined with monster size MPSS.
