H16 should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Can the Pilbeam compete with the Reynard and the MG Lola?

Bucknam did well last year picking in the ALMS with reliability in the 675 class, but the car was nowhere near the pace of the Lola. Of course, they raced the majority of the season running the car closer to SRPII specs rather than 675.

This year, the car has been so heavily modifed that it has to be re-crash tested. Having said that, can it ever be close to the Lola or Reynard/IRM in lap times? I was never particurally impressed with the original design, but apparently they have worked a great deal to make it more competitive, and hopefully just as reliable.
