No More 70's GP in R-class? Lets look at the 787B Next!

Seriously, go and check every possible leaderboard there is for p-class. Go ahead, I’ll wait.

In the interest of fairness, if the 70’s grand prix cars were unfairly fast around tracks, then why is the Mazda 787B still allowed in p-class? It has more braking, handling, top speed and acceleration than all of the other cars in p-class. My best times are about 10 seconds slower than the Mazda’s whereas in other classes my best will usually get me within 3.5-4 seconds of the top time.

Thought experiment: Why do we have a PI (performance index)?

Is it because we want cars of equal PERFORMANCE to be raced against each other so as to create a fair playing field? Because honestly if not why the heck is it there?!!

Cough Ferraris Cough.

Not to sound rude, but why don’t you try and find a better sorting system than PI.

It aint perfect, but the PI system is probably one of the best systems that we can have.

Also, the gaps for R class and above may be greater as there is much less of a margin for error, as one tiny mistake in R could mean blowing the lap completely, whereas you might have just dropped a few tenths with a similar mistake in D class
