    What about establishing a lap time chart where someone can compare lap times at the same track and if it is possible with the same driver?

    People in HK are complaining that they will not buy a "Yaris" for HK$600k (£60k equivalent due to import tax and shipping). "... I'm not paying HK$ 600k for a Yaris !! ..."
    But you are only buying a Yaris by name, it is a purpose built racer from the ground up. They will happily pay a similar premium of 2x the price of a Ferrari all day long !!
