daytona don't know because dp3 (before ALMS-GA merge) were considerably fast on straight due lack of downforce, a GTLM will never reach >310km/h at daytona, but found out a curious fact


2013 DP GRAND-AM pole laguna seca: 1.21.557
2019 GTLM IMSA pole laguna seca: 1.21.557


lol


basically aero and tires compensate the extra weight since

GTLM about 1220-1280kg x about 520hp x confidential michelin

vs

DP about 1050kg x about 510hp x concrete compound spec continental
