It just shows what you can do with a properly set up car. High Hp numbers aren't everything.

Making the most of the hp you do have is key. A properly setup suspension wastes very little hp.

Are you talking about the lap times or straight line? It's definitely not faster than the 500 in a straight line, but on most road courses it should be.
