Just how close a lap time can a standard Toyota GT 86 get when it's up against its race-bred brother from Fensport? Our man Steve Sutcliffe pits one of our favourite sports cars against a rival with quite an unfair advantage. Toyota GT 86 review

500hp from a stripped out car redesigned for racing with aero, nearly slicks is only 7 seconds faster than a 200hp roadcar on prius tires? Ok maybe it didn't have 500hp that day, but a 340hp Porsche Cayman is 10 seconds faster than a GT86 around the top gear track, though it maybe a longer track, proportionally that would have given it a faster time than this car today.

i thought the time difference was going to be greater, i get 8 seconds faster laps with a modified MX-5 NA vs a stock one without even touching the engine. thats on a 1. 08 vs 1. 16 Lap.

I'd take a second hand GT86 and pus some bigger wheels and better tyres, maybe a cold air intake and a remap and it would be perfect. And it would cost roughly as much as a new GT86.

Thank you. Just something I wanted to know as well. Stock 86 (usable road car vs Heavily modified 86 (boosted, airo & strip out track car) the difference on track: )

Fun review! More of these please.
The guy could probably lose half a second per lap just by lowering his daily salt - and beer - intake. Bloated motorsport FTW!

Nice video - the Fensport car looks fun. Surprised it wasn't even faster though with 500 hp, R-comps, BBK, weight reduction, aero, and suspension.

Changing gears in the Fensport would drive me mad, I would love a sequential gearbox but that one is silly. It's like a slot machine.

-There's only one way to find out-. I think of Jonny Lieberman, which is odd since Sutcliffe usually tries to sound like Chris Harris.

Just 8 secs faster! A modified GT86 (brakes, suspension, weight reduction, tires) can be nearly 6-7 secs faster than a stock GT86

I think track battles should only include cars that logically can compete against each other, not much of a battle otherwise really.
