tuned clio vs tuned cupra R which 1 wud win

[coatesy]

240bhp 180lbs torque 1010kg throttle bodies clio cup vs
290bhp 300lbs torque 1375kg leon cupra r

which 1 would be fastest 0-60,60-100,top speed.
am i right in thinking 0-60 clio would win being lighter but cupra would overtake after 60 with 300lbs torque.
just trying to think should i TB my clio r buy a cupra nd tune that.

[mr bognor]

Id say the Clio. 365 Kg is a lot of weight extra for the Cupra to haul along

I imagine the clio would be more fun tho, and ITB noise is immense

my old lcr had about 280-290hp, tbh a 240hp clio - i would favour that!! my lcr was quick though.

 

[coatesy]

thing is that website doesnt take into account the 120lb of more torque the cupra has

 

[Mr. White]

0-60 i imagine it would be neck and neck, but say rolling from 50-110 the cupras torque would take it imo
