Of course turbo cars heat soak in hot weather turbocars need colder to work properly.
The mines skyline gtr has been in the us.
And thats the point. If youve every hot lapped a car in the summer in a place in the southern US... Well as the driver you'll be baking, just think what the car does. That turbo will heat soak, like the drag cars that have metal plennums, its only a matter of time. FI is generally not used for endurance racing. Mind you they are good fun, but if it could be done without FI for the same weight and cost believe me they would. Pauls point here is with the vette it can. It doesnt take away from the GTR.. The gtr can't, at least to my knowledge, put down 800 bhp na. That vette easily can, its been done by everyone and their brother so to speak.

For all out performance at or near sea level on a road race course for more then a few laps NA>FI for identical setups.
