I do think the NGTC cars will be a bit faster, though not sure by how much. I guess a lot of it comes down to how good the tyres are relative to each other. For example, the current super tourers in the historic series are about 3-5 seconds a lap slower than the cars that ran in-period, and the majority of that is down to the tyres.
