The Honda is capable of good quarter miles, but only with high rpm clutch drops. Problem is that kind of treatment will leave the Honda transmission case full of mechanical soup. So if the Honda isdriven with a little bit a regard for the longevity of it'a drivetrain, you can win a 1/4 mile if you manage to launch well.
As far as a road race goes, it will be a matter of what kind of course your on, I think a short curvy course with no long straights will favor the nimbleness of the Honda. While, a course with long straights will allow the Viggen to captalize on it's twice as much torque as the Honda.
Real world the viggen will have a huge advantage, because it will never get caught flat footed or in the wrong gear. Additionally the Honda's superior chassis can't be fully utilized on the street.
later,
Chad
