You're right. And some laptimes were done on early Fisco outline, which is
shorter(top 7). While the other were done on the new one, from 2005, the same
one F1 uses.
Excuse me but lap time for Tsukuba can not be confirmed. This link
(http://www.autoblog.com/2007/12/05/evo-x-vs-sti-tsukuba-lap-times/) DOES NOT
contain any background information about that time.
"Kazuo Shimizu and
Manabu Kawaguchi spent an afternoon thrashing around the notoriously twisty
short circuit just north of Tokyo and here (drum roll please) are the best times
they could ring out of the AWD rivals:
" - that's just ridiculous. It's no serious reference.
Kazuo Shimizu and Manabu Kawaguchi drive for the japanese "Start your engines"
magazine... that are the same guy who did the test drive with the Audi R8 at
Sugo.
