Cluster's right.
I must agree with him. V6 and V8s have MUCH MUCH more pull than I4s. I don't care if you own a ZC or whatever. A V6 usually pulls more than an I4.. unless you drive a WRX than that's different.
Also... a V6 tib would own a ZC but there is an exception.
At the track.. it's not ALWAYS the faster car that wins the races.. but rather then person who has the better reaction time.
Food for thought.
I can guarantee if you put a Prelude up to a Lexus SC430 (and they have similar power to weight ratio... the SC430 would own ***. Reason is V8s have more pulling power @ higher speeds. Inline 4s just won't cut it.
If you guys take a true V8 car out there.. on the highway and just boot it a bit... you'll notice that at 100 km/h.. you can get it up to 200 km/h VERY easily.. but a 4 cylinder can't get up to 200 km/h from 100 km/h very easily... EVEN if the power to weight ratio is even.
Sorry if some of this information is inaccurate.. I'll re-read it later on. Busy in class right now.
