The 956 was conventional... and while priced highly the 918 is carrying about quite alot of weight with if i am right less horsepower than the Nissan. (sorry i dont follow average car companies much) Despite this though if it wasnt for emission regulations and there was a 918 with just the v8 and the weight taken away from the hybrid drive train i am fully convinced it would maintain its time if not a faster one. Especially if it was matted with turbos the size of Texas like the Nissan is.
