True. Sort of. SMOY is not the end all litmus test by any stretch. What does it take to prove that these cars work? So much effort has been applied to verifying the available technology and the cars. It's a long list. And there's photo. video, and data showing these cars--Ring Brothers and all--being used in EVERY environment from street to track. The list of tracks and events includes:
Road Atlanta
Pocono
Laguna Seca
Goodguys auto-X
Run Thru the Hills
Buttonwillow
Road America
Primedia Fontana tests
Power Tour
Optima Challenge
Chassis Dyno results
In the heat
In the rain
What more does anyone need?
