= 38mm (now +6 from GTE base fuel restrictor (E85))
P2 Lola B11 -> Weight -20kg
= 900kg (now same as everyone else)
The Lola adjustment is justified IMHO but the other two are mind boggling once again. I'm a Corvette fan of course but they've been getting so many unnecessary breaks as of late that it's getting a bit ridiculous. They already got a bigger fuel flow restrictor last fall, and on top of that during the winter break they gained another 0,4mm to their already generous air restirctor.
As for Porsche... it's disappointing, they're now easily the lightest car of the top contenders (apart from Aston but that car is sort of a joke alltogether in terms of BoP). They got break last year too and were running at 1220kg (or was it 1225kg) at Long Beach and were somewhat easily on top of the time sheets

I don't know what races you have been watching. but the current 911 RSR is way off the pace.
