"As a result, Randy posted a lap time—1:28.90—that he felt wasn’t representative of what the car could do. With a properly equipped car, Randy believes he could subtract a full second." |
You have to remember - Australian suspension set up is totally different to the US market, who is different to the Korean domestic market, who is different to the European market etc.
ECU and drive modes are also adjusted market to market too!
Bigger, thicker sway bars, stiffer dampers, etc etc make them perform very differently market to market, so its hard to make direct comparison.
