And again, it will be depending on where they race. That miata vs brz/frs in best motoring, i think the race will be very different ifthey were racing in a autox event or small track like tsukuba circuit

This one?

The Megane Trophy 265, which was slightly more than 1 second faster than the Mugen Civic (and much less expensive) is 5 second faster than the 86.

I don't have an issue to scan, all my magazines are at home..

Anyway I find myself agreeing with the Oilers' reviews.

The GTI is a very competent car with very little compromise. The 211 hp engine is quite fast, it usually has more than 225 hp.

I always feel the Mx5 very to nice tro drive (a least the restyled version) but the engine is asmathic, anything this side of a mk1 Clio RS is way faster.

No idea how the other two cars drive.

They are both faster than the following:

Elise SC
E46 M3 CSL
Boxster S
WRX STI
Boss 302...

They are serious FWD cars but the Mugen is super limited edition.

Don't count on a NorthAmerican Civic Si being anywhere close to it...
