I think I prefer big bore and stroke engines for autocross and higher, faster revving smaller cube engines for road courses, at least in terms of fun factor. autocross is a lot more stop-turn-go. I have a Camaro with a 454 cube LS7, and it never lugs out of corners versus my Coyote powered Mustang. However, put the two cars on a road course, and the less powerful Coyote motor is way more fun, despite being slower, simply because you can put your foot down and hold on almost all the time.
