Hi there,

I just got back from 1/8 race today, and I got 3rd ( Group B ).

Regarding VZ-R v.II versus anything else like JP, 35Plus21, RB etc.

Acceleration : more less about the same

Top Speed : this is problem. VZ-R is no match to Italian engines at high revs. They were tailing very easy upon straight line, but I defend my racing line the best I can. Sometimes they made it overpassing me ( and crashed upon corner entry ), sometimes they back off ( safe driving ).
