You guy stock up on the popcorn and I'll go stock up on Orville Redenbacher stock!
I read an article recently saying that popcorn was one of the worst things you can eat, especially the buttered kind. Ya'll should really consider an alternative... Maybe some celery or a carrot stick? haha

), etc., depending on how heavy the rain is, which is why comparing wet times is quite meaningless.
what's the fastest wet track time?

If its in the wet the results are pretty meaningless unless you just want to know how it does in the wet. AWD will have the advantage of RWD pretty much every time in the wet and tire selection will come more into play. Until they do a dry run there is no real way to equally gauge how well the LFA performs on the track and how it does against a GTR and other cars raced on a dry track. It is kind of a waste of time but I am sure it will be interesting at least to watch.

On such a short track I would think that the GTRs AWD would be a huge benefit through Gambon and the hammer head. I am very curious to see who will win. As I have stated before the GTR has destroyed cars that weigh in at easily 4-500 lbs less. The Nurburgring is a very very very very long race track so I can imagine that the LFAs relative feather weight would give it an advantage especially on corner exit speeds allowing it to build a higher top speed on the long straights of the nurburgring
