It quits being about the car at some point and all about the driver. I see 220whp S2ks blow the doors off Camaros, Mustangs and Corvettes. The track has a lot of influence over outcomes as well. Momentum tracks are equalizers for lower horsepower cars. I have seen Eagle blow the doors off said Camaros and run with 1le ZL1s. Driver mod rules. I have a video of me at Buttonwillow Raceway which is a fairly high speed track in my Miata continually running down a guy in an SS Camaro. He would blow my doors off down the straight aways and in no less than two corners I would catch him. Driver mod rules!!!

It's more fun to drive a slow car fast, then it is to drive a fast car slow.
