And it is running 18s versus 16s on the DC5R. You can only achieve so much with the gear ratios too so how does the CTR get that time?
Perhaps it hits 0-100kph still in 2nd gear to help the time - does the DC5R have a shift to 3rd before 100kph? I'll be interested to see if the magazines can get that time.
yeh, DC5R has to shift to 3rd to get to 100. but still man no way it makes that much of a difference

The gearing can make quite a bit of difference. But it is interesting to note that the US Civic SI weighs about the same (1304kg). Honda claimed 6.7 for that car (0-60mph). It has the same if not similar K20 punching out 197 horses.
Edmunds could only get 0-60mph in 7.2 so 0-100kph is a tad slower.
