"You can get suspension to match the increased weight."
no you cant. geeze. inertial load is a function of weight, grip is a function of inertial load, thusly weight affects maximal grip. try it sometime:
lap two cars, one say 1600lbs and another 3,000lb around a short curvy road coarse, I gaurantee the lighter car would win, regardless of the engine power of the 3,000lb car.
in fact, one of the best motoring videos demostrated this by running a mr-s race preped and lightened(and corner weighed) at 190ps versus a S15 prepped at 300+ps, and the mr-s won because it was over 400lbs lighter...
