Actually, I think the autocross guys tend to get things right more often than the road race guys... in autocross every .001s counts and you can't make up anything by driving a defensive line. In road race you can get away with more issues than you can at a national level in autocross.

That car looks like it's at the top level of autocross... think of it as an F1 car. I'd expect to see more dumb-ass stuff at lower levels of road race than at the top level of autocross. Sure, it's just autocross, but those folks are the best in the world at it.
