Power vs Light Weight and Balance

Forget the open-wheel cars on this battle.  I don't know why they lined them up in this group.  Pay attention to the little FWD Honda Accord and it's cornering speed.  Even on a high-speed track like Motegi, a balanced car is faster than cars with twice the power and twice the technology.  The JTCC Accord makes about 280 hp, and I know both of those tuned Skylines make more than double that.  It's amazing how all of the cars in the battle make the Ferrari 355 Challenge actually look slow.
