The weight differences is important, however the frs even at similar hp levels will still have significantly less torque also.

Neither have i and the one that are hitting 11s are turbo 400plus frs/brzs

On a drag strip, the AWD advantage is huge. On a road course, assuming the FRS isn't running stock tires, it would be quite close.
I understand that but when i have videos and slips of his car at 380hp hitting 11.9s all day theres no way a 300hp frs is even going to come close to it. Best ive seen out of a sc frs is 13s

Yea his tuner kept talking about the evos weight but it doesnt matter about the weight when the evo runs 11.9s and the frs would probably hit 13s if hes a good driver

Like I said, AWD street cars are pretty much untouchable at the drag strip. I bet he's launching with like a 1.6 60' time. Compare the trap speeds though, I bet they're a lot closer than the ET's.
