We all know that track condition matter alot in a race, but how much? How much can it improve your times? I know there are windy days which give cars an amazing advantage. Due to wind they can get unusual times. Here is an example.
I watched Best MOTORing Roaring VTEC the other day, and they have 4 different NSX's doing 0-400M times.
They had these 4 NSX doing numerous of runs... here are the result...
Old Type S vs New Type S = Old Type S. Both cars ran in the 13.249 range.
Old Type R vs New Type S = New Type S. Takaya ran a 12.7 while GanSan ran around low 13s.
Old Type S Zero vs New Type S = Old Type S Zero. Takaya ran 12.4 while Gan San ran 13.1.
The best for the new type S was 12.7. But the old Blue type S ZERO hit 12.4s.
I also saw a Best MOTORing video with a GT-R doing 12.4 in the 1/4. But that video was shot during the winter, all cars did amazingly well. Both Evo and STi ran 12.8, it was very windy. From watching the videos, you can see the big different in wind condition.
Basicallly I am wondering about track condition. I know on cold and windy days all cars perform better, but on hot and humid days, there has been a rumor that turbocharged car arent going to do as good as a N/A car.
Also 12.4 and the normal 12.8 that they run on the 1/4 is a pretty big difference. Could this be to track conditions?
