Correct so one would expect to see a certain loyalty towards the brand. This would be true, I guess, of any brand forum you went to. Also taking a position then backing up that pov with valid arguments does not make one "protective".

What do you base this statement upon? "wipe the floor" suggests to me a large difference but looking at the on paper specs the cars look quite similar. I'm sure that a set of decent tyres on the 86 would make a difference (and I appreciate that swapping tyres would make the 86 not "stock"). Also omitted from your hypothesis is driver skill and mass.
