Being consistent is the key to winning. Having a slower car is a definate advantage. The launch, the light and the hangover are the my biggest concerns. Having a faster car lets you "play" at the end. Being able to lift the throttle or coast a little bit and then nose out your competion by half a fender will put you in the money. Faster cars are more competitive and harder to run on the number. Hence the payout is better in the faster classes. I've been racing at Island from the time I got my license, pretty steady until I got married. In the end it's the driver. When you come out of the staging lanes look over and see who your paired up with. Fast car, slow car, If the back window is peppered with class win stickers you're probably gonna lose..............
