"If the GT4 driveline was so good for handling TTR wouldn't have to petition to have a complete new centre diff setup allowed so thatt hey can be competetive with the WRX and Evo."

Gotta remember josh , neal uses the basis of st205 drivetrain - its at least 6 years older than any of the current stuff on the market - of course he'd have to ask to have it upgraded to be compeditive

Comparing todays evo or STi to a gt4 is a bit like chalk and cheese - were playing with 10-15 year old technology ( edit: at its most updated specifications ), 100% mechanical , no bells and whistles - as you said , for the time , was the best that could be run .. the later AWD heros have alot of electronics backing up their power distribution.

One forte of the gt4 though ,its built like a brick shithouse to deal with rallying, hence the added weight disadvantages - though todays evo ir WRX are no lighter than a St205

to make a gt4 even able to keep up to a modern day EVO , or wrx takes a shiteload of money and work , but its not impossible - though as the end of the day - a Gt4 is only going to raise to a near stock EVO or a WRX Sti standard - whereas those guys who own those cars can build further apon what they have. technology favours them as well as development in chassis , brakes and drivetrain of nearly 10 years

As for the mr2 - its lighter , has less diffs to transfer power thru - is more designed as an all out track blaster - of course it will win

Gt4's were built for dirt , and gravel first and foremost. Id be surpsided if a mr2 could handle the stresses put on it if it was taken off road , but as they say horses for courses
