Saying that a 4 cylinder will never run under 6 seconds with V8s is just plain wrong. Have you seen the prostreet toyota celica yet? I believe it's running around 6 seconds with a fully built custom 4 cylinder motor. So guess again.

And it is much harder to launch a front wheel drive car then a rear wheel drive car. In a rear wheel drive car you don't have to deal with issues like torque steer. Also try hooking up on a launch in a front wheel drive car when all your weight is shifting to the rear wheels.

You have to give props to competitive four cylinder racers. Look at people like Bergenholtz who was the first to run under 10's with a honda. I mean it's easy to make a Mustang or other V8 run 10's, but a Honda is car that no one ever though would be able to pull this off and it did. So saying imports will never be able to run in the 6 second bracket is just a bad guess. Someone just like you said a honda couldn't run tens years ago and guess what? A ton of people sure proved him wrong.
