^ Your FD is not a fair comparison when talking about weight. Keep in mind how bloated cars have become, and what we're anticipating for the FT86 (I want 2600 lbs max). But wasn't the FD a touch over 2800lbs stock? So, sadly, things have changed. (A 'fat pig heavy' Mk3 Supra weighs about as much as the all carbon fiber Lexus LFA. No joke.)
It's not only about power to weight. That is the 'going' part of driving. There are also 'stopping' and 'turning'. Colin Chapman of Lotus pointed out that, all things being equal, a 200 hp 2000lbs car will out-perform a 400 hp 4000lbs car on the average track. The 400 hp car will only have an advantage in top speed due to hp/drag.
