Well, it is the odd ball forum so I will weigh in here...

Your car in A looks a lot like mine in S. A bit down on peak power, but gobs of torque. You have another advantage with the mid engine as well.

I suspect that your car will be like mine in this regard. On tracks with shortish straights, tighter stuff, and no real long power sections like VIR and RA, you will be VERY competitive. On other tracks, you may have some issues, but still, those numbers seem pretty good for an A car to me. Get that torque to hook up and you will find that others have a HARD time passing you.

Like K man says about the Sunbelt Z cars, they "found" a lot horsepower in handling. You will need to do the same, like all of us.

Your about the same "reported" power as Andy B's Miata, higher torque than the Egg and down a bit on power up on torque to the best 240SX numbers I've seen.

I'd build it at that point. Worse case is you have a fun to drive, unique top 5 car. With a lot of development, you can win on certain tracks I think.
