Its true, if you can’t handle 90hp in every way possible then you sure as hell won’t handle 900hp getting to the ground….wanna talk about touchy touchy gas pedals lol
I do it with my 40 hp mehran n!gga i be hitting apexes with rear leaf springs drum brakes and no power steering and no abs
course knowledge of course counts a lot, an in mountain pass where is not too many straights and possibly rather steep turns there is little that “a powerful audi” could do.
What it comes to course knowledge I have shaken couple Civic’s (160+hp) with my 250hp “land yacht” Chevrolet Caprice wagon with bone stock suspension. and 3 speed autotragic transmission on some back roads, Granted that I wouldn’t go to track with them as I would be just a roadblock for them. sure I had power advantage, but they had power to weight advantage, and “slightly” better suspension for fast driving.
Of course course knowledge will play a part, but assuming that both drivers know the track at least reasonably, and other has by far superior car, the superior car will win. if there is even one place where that superior car can use all of it’s power.
Of course it’s true. 90hp can be driven on the limit and is fast enough in the right car. If you can’t control a car on the limit, and get the most out of the horses you have, simply adding HP isn’t going to make you a good driver.
I say you can maneuver fast in 90 hp on a track but if you’re talking straight line racing, I don’t know what you’re thinking.
I can drive fast with 60 hp. Low weight and corners, that’s my recipe. :D
Yep, someone I know said he got black flagged at a track day as he was bullying a souped up evo with an MGB
Correct to an extent… If you drive the 90 hp to its limit and litteraly cant do any better, than the 900 hp car would do better with moderation of the power. But you are correct to an extent…

I agree,
As Jezza him self once said (f12 730bhp) https://youtu.be/U_ed8pBMel4?t=6m1s
