B and C main drivers will go faster by 2-4 sec per race. I've seen and lived it myself in the US since this car has been introduced. Say what you want but you won't know until you try one.
So I guess if you gave Volker one, he'd drive circles around everyone

In fact, that would be a great idea because it will force companies to make new designs. Might even spark a movement to rethink the design constraints imposed by ROAR.
