Ok, here is another question. If a Z28 has to beat the Boss (assuming this is a track contest only, no drag strip, not counting a car that is close to the Boss but a better daily driver) does it have to beat the Boss on any track, on any day, under any conditions? Or can it be that the Mustang, being smaller and lighter, can win on a short track but the Camaro wins on a long track?

Because I'm concerned about a heavier car winning every race. I think we all agree that whatever happens, getting weight parity won't happen. HP parity maybe, but to win every race on every course against a Boss would mean a chassis upgrade so incredible that the Boss can't keep up. Maybe the IRS can deliver that much improvement.
