The Deuce,

This is comparing apples to oranges too. Agreed, the SVO has a 4 cylinder compared to the Firehawk 8 which is a huge difference, but the SVO is turbocharged where the Firehawk is not. This power adder makes up some distance. But you say you'd put $ on the "fast and werked up" SVO vs. the "early" Firehawk. Based on that scenario I would too. But to level the playing field I'd put $ on the early Firehawk if it were "lightly modded" vs. the "fast and werked up" SVO. I say this only because the SVO has the power adder and isn't a plain-jane 4 banger.

Then again I suppose when you're comparing different vehicles of different eras, with different weights, with different mods and different drivers the playing field can never be level. If NASCAR can't find a way to level the field, we certainly can't here.

Regards,
