Forum Wars Comparison Data

I was bored so I decided to compile a list of the 1/8 mile times as well as the road course times and sorted each from best time to worst.

You will notice the Porsche 996 and GTR are on the list twice and that's due to two different episodes featuring them against each other. (different owners of course)

Well the first thing I noticed were that these drivers were all over the board in their skill. Viper at 9.97 in the 1/8th? When they can be in the 11's for the 1/4. Cars like the STI and EVO with high 9's in the 1/8th when the 1/8th is their strength.

The second thing I noticed was the glory of VTECs.

The Viper guy had trouble getting his wheels to hook off the line. It was cool to watch each episode back to back and see each individuals weak and strong points. The driver of the 08 Shelby was pretty damn good.
