[B]I'd be suprised if the GTS pole time is beaten. Personally I think Pole will be 5 seconds slower than GTS pole which I belives will be around 3.48.
Even in the Group C heyday only the qualifying specials with big boost engines got below 3.40, with the quickest around 3.35. The Nissan R90C did a 3.27, but this was on a LM circuit at least 3 seconds quicket than today with qualifying tyres and engine.
1990 - qualifying xjr12s of davy jones / martin brundle / big john all went 3.37 or below.
yep - agree with pole time estimate. imo, i can't see anybody turning up the wick (or being allowed too) cos of the maintenance costs.
as an aside - i dont't think i saw an entry from siggi brunn. does he still run 956 / 962s??
