I'm going to agree with Nick on this and I am by no means trying to start any s*%t. There is nothing more frustrating than working my ass off and driving as hard as I can to reel in a big motor car going into T5 at Summit, loose all my momentum only to have them pull on me like a banshee coming out of T9 and not get close enough again until T3. The same thing happens at Shenandoah, I'll be able to hang with a big motor car all the way around the track but coming out of Big Bend or climbing the Bridge Straight they just pull on me. I guess my point is that there are a few big motor cars in the lower run groups where the drivers rely way too much on the right foot in order to go fast. So I don't necessarily know if this person (could be anybody in general, Porsche or any car)that is constantly being caught up to by a smaller engine car will be able to handle the speed in which they are driving if something bad were to happen. I didn't think it happened that much until I was at a Mercedes Benz Club DE, there was a wide variety of all type of cars there and I watched as the train grew & grew starting with an E63. Again, I am by no means trying to start any s^$t nor am I am implying that there are bad drivers in the club. Truth be told, I have never felt more welcomed at RTR events than any other event I gone to.
