MarioNZ should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Hard to find published (or admitted) torque figures for V8 Supercars but found a figure of 616nm for Jason Bright's car from last year in a newspaper article. This apparently equates to 454 ft-lbs so let's redo our numbers.....

505ft-lbs/1300kg = 388 ft-lbs per ton

454ft-lbs/1445kg = 314 ft-lbs per ton

Interesting......this is fun !!
