The conversation revolves around the definition and spirit of time attack in the context of different classes and rule sets. Amir argues that time attack is an engineering challenge that pushes the boundaries of car performance, while Kevin emphasizes the importance of driver development. They also touch on the perception of time attack in Japan versus the US. Amir argues that there should be a distinction between cars that are truly dedicated to time attack and those that are not. He believes that the effort and resources put into building a time attack car should be recognized and that the sport should not be diluted by including cars that do not meet the same level of preparation. Kevin, on the other hand, believes that there is room for both types of cars in the sport and that the focus should be on growing and promoting time attack as a whole. They also touch on the role of money and resources in time attack and the passion and dedication required to succeed. Kevin argues that newer cars have inherent advantages and are easier to get into, while Amir emphasizes the importance of effort, dedication, and education in building a successful time attack car
