I think the FS/AA copo is at a disadvantage to any of the older slower cars we all run on a 9 inch tire who is more likely to smoke the tires the new Copo with 1100 hp running 8.00-8.50 or the older lower class car running 9.00-11.00 the answer is obvious. If you dialing and it is not heads up the slower car will be more consistent.
