Unless you are suggesting that old Pilot Super Sports and 6mt didn't hold back the F87C compared to the G87 w/ ZF8 and Cup 2? Because that is a VERY bold argument.
Agreed that the old PSS and MT may have held the M2C back but again, not close to the 1:11, for the reasons I mentioned. We're still looking at 1-1.5 seconds in terms of difference given its a 1 minute track. And remember, you're comparing a comp F87 with a base G87. If there is ever a comp G87, let's compare that against the comp F87. Same with the CS and so forth. Goes back to my point that cars improve over generations, a fact everyone knows....
