But don't forget, a lot more comes into play here.

1. The attitude and attentiveness of the driver.
2. The driver's comfort and familiarity with the vehicle.
3. The state of vehicle (systems and mechanical maintenance being up to par).
3. The weight overall weight of vehicle at time (no un-necessary storage in the trunk, etc.).
4. Timing (how they respond to the start-gun, or light, etc.).

It doesn't matter what you're driving, if the one that you're racing is not familiar and confident with how to drive their car, then, it's over and done, end of story! Post your sign saying, "Here endeth the lesson!"
