well i think it does matter if companies make 200mm WORLD GT cars for the US market with 4 cell nihms configuration while the rest of the world drives PRO10 with 2S lipo's. Anyway... this has been discussed already a lot.
For the rest 200 or 235 can drive together i agree with you, i don't have a problem with that. In the races we have they do race together but i do see that 235mm have more corner speed then 200mm cars on the tracks that i vissited. That is why there are more 235mm pro10 then 200mm
pro10 cars here.
For instance, i haven't seen a 200mm crc 10x after they introduced the wide option. On very small (indoor) tracks the 200mm are maybe better but we drive on big outdoor tracks.
