The VW Racing Cup uses power to weight as an equaliser, 200bhp/ton. But we found last year when my friend raced his Polo G40 in the championship that although he had the same power/weight and was lighter than the rest of the field generally, it didn't help him much (ok, first year of racing so lack of experience will have counted) because the other guys had him on the torque that their turbo'd cars, TDi's etc put out.
