Bets on whether it posts a faster time than the Cup? I say yes due to advantage of turbo at altitude.

I wonder if he would not be faster in a torque vectoring AWD TTS with PDK...

Not with the extra 500 lbs that it's carrying it won't be faster, but it would be a nice ride. :D

HP/WGT ratio favors the 2RS, not factoring in any HP loss at altitude for the NA Cup.

I am with you, he may actually post a better time, a new record if weather is favorable.
