Or simply can't afford to develop their car to that extent. SP,
especially ASP can be a rather pricey endeavor. But that should have
absolutely no bearing on where or how a car gets classed. Curt, and
Dwight before him, have shown us that the 911 does have the potential in
ASP. It just takes the right combination of development, and driver
talent to make it work. But isn't that the case with most any car?
