So I've been watching vids and reading about the civic si and its competitors. Things like the GTI, Mazda speed 3, and focus st. I understand the Si beating the GTI, those cars are nearly identicle in regards to performance. What I don't understand is in a track video against the Mazda speed 3 the Si won. Just watched a video of the 2013 focus st and it got a 14.6 quarter mile. Isn't the Si sedan rated at 14.5? I don't get it. The ms3 has something like 270hp and around that in torque. The ST has something like 250hp and 270 tq. How in the world can the Si compete with those. Our cars have like 200hp and 170 tq. Wondering what you guys think on the subject.
