So did you bother to find out how much each of these cars weighed before you started talking sh*t.
Cuz
Talon/eclipse = 2549
civic dx/ex = 2326/2502
that looks like about 50-200 lbs. WOW thats a HUGE difference.
the minimal weight difference would be made up by the UNBELIEVABLE launch capabilities of an AWD car.
the reason yer buddies WRX got pulled on is cuz he does not know how to drive his car.
If a RWD porsche pulled on his WRX in the launch or even in 2nd gear he doesn't know how to drive his car.
to launch a turbo all wheel drive car you rev it to like 4500-7000 rpm and pop the clutch. it just grabs and go's like nothing you've seen before
