A little.. but the weight is further forward making the moment arm that much larger and increasing the polar moment of intertia..
Yeh yeh .....all details but believe me hanging a four wheel drift in a slick shod Group A M3 racer is far more fun and games than trying to bully a nose heavy 6around the same bend.. trying to get the damn thing to turn in and having to bring it into line every damn lap whilst somebody in his Cossie MErc 2.3 or Escort Cossie is trying to get by on on the inside...
Oh the joy...
The four banger is the real scalpel.. a 6 dulled version..faster on the unimpeded open trac, but far less fun and slower to race..
On the road the difference is more a longhood with a 2.7RS engine or one with a 3.6.. the 2.7 wil be more fun and a 'better' drive and as soon as conditions are less than perfect a faster one too...
