Acura Integra Type R vs Mitsubisho Evo7 Prototype
Evo7 around 300hp Turbo Integra around 224hp NA

Corner One: Off the line I was beaten by the evo which had more power and torque. Coming into the corner I was about 1 1/2 car lengths behind. Due to understeer I couldn't gain much on the evo in the corner, maybe half a car length.

Corner Two: After the high speed corner the evo slipped a little and I became on this tail. Due to his turbo (turbo lag) he lost torque in the hairpin and cornered slower, allowing my integra to pull side by side.

Corner 3,4,5: In highspeed corner three I was passed again by the evo but I breaked late in corner 4 and made up the ground on the inside. In hairpin corner 5 the evo slowed to around 33mph but by using the handbrake i cornered at around 40mph. Here we are side by side again.

Corner 6,7: In these high speed "drift" corners the evo had the advantage, but I took the inside forcing the evo to go slightly slower.

Corner 8,9: Using the ebrake in corner 8 I passed the evo and using wheight transfer cornered hairpin 9 gaining distance.

Corner 10: Into corner 10 I really felt the understeer and the evo was right on my tail. Exiting the corner the evo gunned it and slipped and I gained advantange powering out using ff and accelerated into the straightaway. Quickly, the evo caught up but not in time.
 
I like, kinda short but good nonetheless. I for one have the toughest time with front wheel drive. Is there a second lap perhaps? :D
