Most rally cars only have 300 hp because that is all they need. There are many different types of racing. Quickness is all relative my friend. The most important thing is a good usable power band. Look how many cars there are out there that are only dyno queens with impressive numbers.
I can see how that could be true if the 300hp car is heavier, or its a road course. But a 235HP Lancer beating an 300HP evo?

One thing I hate: People who buy Lancers because they think since the Evo is fast, the Lancer must be.

Now granted if you spend enough money, anything can beat anything.
