putting both cars on the same tires would be a way of equaling the playing field.
sure you could put a downforce kit on just the FR-S and it could give it the extra grip on the stock tires to allow it to beat the GTI, but then it has a down force advantage.
if you are comparing stock car versus stock car. the best way to get an equal comparison it to put them on the same make of tire.

Every car vs car comparison is going to have one car with an advantage in some areas over the other and vice versa. By your logic they should only compare like cars (FR-S vs FR-S or GTI vs GTI) and there is no point in comparing two different cars (FR-S vs GTI). I'm sorry, but that's not how it works. The FR-S comes with those tires and the GTI comes with it's tires. That's how they are stock, that's how you compare. It's not an excuse and making the excuse screams poor loser.

However, that does not apply here, cause I'm sure the suspension of the Twins, the aero dynamics, the curb weight and all other factors OTHER than the tires are superior to that of a GTI.

They took the record for the track and you are not impressed?
