So this happened.

I do not have the Porsche 918 Spyder Weissach Package, so I did my run with my highest rated car, the Ferrari 375 F1.

The 375 is at PR 64.0 (4212132), which translates to 296kph. 2.59s, 26.6m, and 1.37g. Obviously this car is not even close to the 918, so I puttered along to a 02:26 lap time.

Then I wondered what my lower PR Maserati Granturismo MC Stradale (Limited) might do. It is PR 62.4 (Engine -1) 369kph. 3.31s, 28.0m, and 1.39g. First run out I was 4 seconds faster than the 375. Still no 918, but better than I would have expected based on PR, Acceleration, and Braking.

I guess the moral of the story is that there are tracks that fit a car and tracks that don't. even though it might take longer to get there, the higher top speed and slightly better grip seems to out weight the much greater acceleration and braking distance, at least in my hands.
