I don't know you and you have absolutely no clue of my training and experience. If you need some professional statistic, Stevenson smoked the R's this year with their Z/28's de-tuned and effectively running in limp mode. Try performing some of your own basic research and offer a useful counter opinion before attacking me.
Your training? Please, do tell. Which N/A GM V8 makes the Vodoo seem underpowered? I don't need to do, "basic research" I know what a good powerband for the track looks like and this is one. Nearly 5,000rpm-wide linear power delivery at high rpm. Your comment about peak torque and powerband just reveals your inexperience. Ferrari and Porsche must make terrible track cars if it's all about peak torque . The type of racing you're talking about is heavily reliant on the regulating body balancing the cars properly, and these regulations tend to change frequently in an attempt to do so, so your point is pretty irrelevant.
