The RX8 will be out of fuel by 1/4 mile
And oil. I'd give it to the RX8 but not by much. Better traction?

standard CLIO 182????
Having gone back to an RX8 from my 172 i would think it would be very close, the RX8 has better initial traction and would probably stay ahead, my 172 felt faster in the 20 - 60 mph range but seemed to lose it after 60 where the RX8 is just getting into its stride.
The rx8 does 50 to 82 (7000 in 2nd to top of 3rd gear) very quickly so that might just win it, never tried pulling hard through 4th so don't know how it does beyond there.

traffic light grand prix?

I'd imagine the RX would make better traction off the line and then an even pull untill about 80-90 where it will ever so slightly edge further away

It's those cambelt changes you need to watch for, you have to take the engine out to do it.

It's got more than a 182. And holds it a lot longer too.
And 230bhp. Power to weight will be similar. RWD. There can't be much between them. Neither would get owned.

And you both had exactly the same tyres, same pressures, and you and the other driver are identical twins who have reaction times within milliseconds of each other, right?
No? Oh well. They're close enough that the driver/launch would make the difference tbh, but the RX-8 is the faster car all else being equal.
