BTCC cars are not allowed to use variable valve timing, so those cars don't have VTEC. Also using a race series like that as an example to compare drivetrain layouts is a poor idea, as there is always restrictions based on all the cars to try to maintain performance parity. So the speed of the car is not at all representative of the performance of the base car or the base drivetrain layout.
