I agree that there are a lot of well built road race winning fox's out there. In an all out road race car like you mentioned, I'm quite sure nearly everything has been changed, rienforced, welded, and beefed up for competition. I doubt even wheel base and track width are even the same. They took an existing chassis, and improved on it.
I autocross all year long, and numerous times run across fox's that are well built and outperform my 03. Those cars are not street cars, and are quite modified as well as always on R compound tires (I run street tires).
However, we're not talking about all out race cars. I'm talking about the average fox, and the average 99-04. On the average, is it fair to say that the newer car handles better than a fox?
