I don’t see why such slow performance for a lightweight 260hp/t car on acceleration and track performance
It’s behind alpine A110 with only 220hp/t
And behind Renault Megane RS clubsport at 192hp/t
On a simulator it is also slower than cars like mazda mx5 cup or renault clio rs cup mk3

The laptime from Zodern is wrong this time was driven by the Lotus Exige S not the 240R!
