What nonsense. The LDM vehicle with a seasoned driver placed only 0.1 sec from the 3rd slowest car in qualifying (Mr Moffat in the fancied brand new and shiny Wilson Security GRM Commodore) and only 1.1 seconds from pole position. A tiny gap to the rest.

Clearly the engine and car preparation is more than acceptable, and well within 105%. It does not suggest a vehicle from "Planet Mork", running some 100hp down on the competition with clapped out shock absorbers... nothing of the sort. It suggests a well prepared vehicle with comparable power to the competition, competent vehicle setup and properly valved shock absorbers prepared with care.
