randy pobst is a hell of a driver, if he drove any of those that you listed they would have had a better time. also lets take a look at something else.


all these cars are just as fast around the track (faster with a better driver) and has a much better 1/4 mile time. the brz is not a well rounded car, it does 1 thing decently, but if you can get the brz going as fast of a 1/4 mile of any of those cars, its track time will substantially drop.


I'll give props to Pobst; his times would presumably be higher than an average drivers.

It's easy to... over do it.
If you take a BRZ and double the power to match those cars, handling would be hindered.
But would you say if you add 50 horsepower, or 75 horsepower and increase the 1/4 times, i don't think it would substantially drop the track times, if not raise them.

Although speaking on doubling the horsepower and suddenly 'driving on rails' as FMX would declare, i don't see any complaints from Matt Farah in this 400+hp/torque modified brz.

Sure, it will just make it more well rounded, running 12's isn't ideal at every track.

Out of the box, the car is great, the point of the car is to add to it to make it your own.
Some people want a jap drift box, some people want a fast car that can run 12's, some people want a fun dd, some people want a track car, different folks, different strokes.
I mean, clearly 200hp isn't the limit of the car before handling turns to shit.
There is reason people call it 80% of a porsche for 20% of the price, and the track times at willow springs reflects that.

But no one is claiming anything about the car, or their owners, except the haters.
People who buy brz's know the car isn't fast, it's just a small, light, agile, rwd coupe.

lol

I almost didn't add that because i knew some dumbfuck would say something.
Sure enough, a dumbfuck showed up to say something.

Fast BRZ's exist, is it worthwhile to do that to a brz, not in my opinion, but they exist, so people bought the car for that purpose.
