I've seen Corsairs to do extremely well. They have to be tweaked just right though, especially for nocal, where I've noted that a lot of designs become quite unforgiving (even Lacey's). I seem to remember that Tim Lavender was doing about 90 seconds with his in Cat I. He could probably do longer, but I don't think he has time to do a lot of testing of his own models. Unfortunately, the last time he flew it, the results were not pretty.
