I thought the same thing until I went to the blog site and saw that the other cars were running R compound tires and many were heavily modified. A modified MiniCooper S with R compound tires is nearly a jet powered go kart!

There's no way a stock 370Z on OEM tires could keep up with those things in the corners and depending on how much the Mini owner has done to his turbo/SC power plant, even in the straights...

Here's the actual blog post: http://www.zcarblog.com/2009/04/15/3...l-raceway.html
