Dyno plots, you serious? This is a hugely competitive big dollar game and I dont see anyone giving away much if anything so people can ooh and ahh over a dyno graph.

They had very limited testing prior to WTAC, expect big things from this car

But if it is indeed 5 then that is all that much more impressive especially on street tires.

^ Where are you getting your info from?
In the posted WTAC video of Nemo, it didn't look capable of pulling more than 2 Gs in high speed corners. If the car was capable of pulling more, it should have done so in turn 1. There were a couple of very short spikes in the 2.x G range, but those looked to have come from surface irregularities, not steady state cornering. As much as we'd all like to see an Evo corner like an F1 car, it's nowhere near that right now. Heck, it's not even anywhere near a radical or ALMS prototype. I for one will be very impressed if they can get their aero to give them a sustained 3 G - and even more impressed if they can keep oil in the block at that level.

I think Nemo will probably impress even more on Tsukuba than it did at Eastern Creek - going by the fact it was apparently down >40kph versus comparable cars on the straights it must be REALLY hitting a wall in terms of aeros vs downforce. Throwing an extra 100-200hp by way of 9180 I doubt will make a huge amount of difference beyond improving the already short bursts of acceleration, so really a technical track with enough speed to get aeros working but low enough speed to not spend extended periods of time pushing against wall might really do it some justice.
Could we see a 51.xx at Tsukuba?
