I guess by these definitions my older brother is a "Whippersnapper", while I'm a "Vintage Racer". Man this is getting confusing! But let's not forget. At
Autobahn, the handicapping system is going to reward consistency, not outright speed. Of course it will also reward sand-bagging in qualifiying, but that's another story. Three seconds is a LOT of time on a <2 mile course!
