Power isn't everything. But as of now. You're driving a 240hp car that's so light that your power to weight ratio is one of the best in class and you own a Z. Trade your Alfa for a toyobaru and see if you'll be making the same case... ??? Lol.
It's kinda dumb to make a butt dyno theory between your Z and Alfa with fake drivers. I guess that's a true canadian analysis... ??? Lol.
On the top gear track
370z pulled 127.50
Alfa 4c pulled 124.80.
So basically the Alfa was 3.2 seconds faster with 1000 lbs less weight and 110 less hp.

Pretty much what I am saying - I'm doing 1:16 on our track and fairly certain that with a better (stick) driver than me the stock Z could do 1:20 or close to. A raced prepped, stripped 350Z has turned 1:09 in time attack on the same layout and a Civic SI racecar is flirting with 1:12's (with much, much better drivers than me). Stock 2019 Civic with an exceptionally good driver is running 1:24 on stock brakes/rubber. I'm not aware of another 4C with a faster driver on this circuit (I guess I'll just have to become that guy, as I improve :-) ). If I were better with the clutch pedal, I might do the "Stig" thing and give you two lap times, but I'm not (on track), so I'll just let my wife continue to drive it. Happy wife, happy life!
Her lap times were ... well, lets just say not near 1:20. But it was her first time driving any car on track in a serious fashion.
