theres so many factors that can play into a race, from driver skill, to weather conditions, to engine and tire wear, all the way to as minute as tire pressure.

given ideal conditions, 99 celica GT 5-speed off the show room floor with 0 miles, and a 99 Civic SI 5-speed off the show room floor with zero miles. if you were to neglect breakin time, take them to a drag strip, both drivers have the same skill and get identical reaction times, the Celica WILL NOT WIN. period. end of story. that is what i think the guy was asking.
