err..guys, sorry to interrupt..
true ilsaw, provided that both drivers' capability are d same...
i wonder if anyone still remembers those good ol' days at SAMP, the Saturday Nite Feva..??...still remember that civic 2nd generation?
still remember 1st leg always non turbo cars...this civic will tapau everyone, of course..
2nd leg all turboed only..then the third leg..top cars from both leg will compete all together...and guess what?..that damn civic tapaued everyone oso!!damn man, even one or two evo and impreza were smoked by this guy...
logically, a non turbo car is more favourable when it comes to track race, where there's high demand in driving skills rather than top end power. small events, such as carpark sprints, is actually a good platform where u can actually develop your skill, rather than just depending on power alone...this will of course benefit as u can apply the techniques in your everyday driving and what most important is, SKILLS DO SAVE LIVES, in case of any mishaps...
any 10 or maybe 8 year old boy, coached for a few days on how to step on the pedal, release the clutch and brake when he crossed the finish line can win a drag / straight line race, provided with a super-power turbocharged car.
give him that same car, and ask him to do a lap @ sepang, i bet he'll end up in a gravel....or tyre wall...or worst HKL!
studying ur rides, getting to know its advantages and weaknesses and continuosly improving yourself by reading, watching, asking and makings lotsa friends, then try to optimise to the fullest the capability of your rides is far more satisfying then just simply throwing some RM and plonking a turbocharged monster under your hood and go around bragging how fast u can go...the only thing that's improved is your top speed...which is quite dangerous coz your skills is still at old level and your brain might shrunk as a result of the high speed and your continously growing diameter of lobang hidung from your own pride and proud feeling of driving a turbocharged car and sucking in too much of dirt and godknowswhatelse in the air as u passes by in the turbocharged car...
but turbo or non turbo, i still believe that what differs us humans from cows is how u present yourself, how u talk, what u talk about and how u carry yourself around, especially in forums like zth, where we can only get a picture of the people in here by reading their threads and comments...
i pity some people...that talk too much and not making any useful impact - not even to themselves, thus others. the only thing they're good at is exposing their self-stupidity, and a huge amount of decrease in their braincells...
cheers!
