Oooooh, I smell a challenge!  But I don't think you need to be present to
win.  I think we can do this by lap time (autox style :)).  I don't have
times at Button Willow, but 1:55s at Sears and 1:46s at Laguna should be a
good start.  My car weighs about ~3200lb with me in it and puts out 216HP at
the wheels.  Frankly, I think it's much more than HP and weight.  My car is
within 1% of 25% weight distribution on each corner.  I think that is a big
factor.
