As mentioned before, they play huge games with weight, restrictors, RPM limits, tires, so on and so on. I mean ****, you have the exact same cars in more than one class... that should tell you something.

Fact is, there has only ever been one Z at a time in Grand Am (Don't think AM and Doran overlapped anyway) and partly because of that, a Z has never won. I don't think one has even podiumed.

All it takes is one turn of bad luck and an entire platform is out of the running for the race (or entire weekend). Add to that Nissan being fickle about sponsoring races for the teams and, well... yeah.

Anyway point is, Grand Am is an awful example of which platform is faster, no matter what you're comparing.

Only racing series that are really "equalish" without being literally spec chassis are things like V8 Supercars, Trans Am, DTM and maybe a handful of others around the world.

Everything else, someone's gettin the short end of the stick for one reason or another.
