Weight is just about everything in making a
competitive autocross car, and that's a pretty
well-known fact. If two cars have similar
power-to-weight ratios, the lighter one is usually
better. Why don't we compare the G35 coupe to a FS
car like a Z28:
_________G35____________Z28
_________---____________---
Horsepwr_280hp__________310hp
Torque___270lb-ft_______340lb-ft
Weight___3416lbs________3433lbs
I think this may make it a little easier to see why it
can go to FS.
Personally I don't think it could win (trophy?) in
BS,CS,FS or even ES.
