Dont be talkin about my Yankees like that. Let me guess a Red Sox fan.

I understand what your talkin about though.

ding ding ding

Even worse, I'm an Orioles fan

I just wanted to point out that I never made the arguement that you cannot compare the two cars, OR that my car was better because I spent less money on it.

My only feeling was that I personally felt pretty good that my car could keep up with a much more expensive (and much faster stock) car than mine. It shows me that all my efforts have made a difference.

You are welcome to try and follow me on a mountain run anytime you want. I'll give you mapquest and see you at the end

You sound just like my buddy with an '03 cobra which just about pulls the front wheels off the ground when his slicks are on. He said everything you are saying until he tried to follow me on a back road to my house with multiple off-camber turns and 90s. hehe

Are you setting up a challenge for him? That would be entertaining.

drdome99 · 02-24-2006, 04:12 PM

If that thing is as beastly as he says I doubt we would ever see that challenge, and I wouldn't blame him lol.

Eh, it runs alright...in a straight line. That's what I made it for. Hell, it does have 4" wheels up front. If I had wanted to make it for turning, I would have. RWD dominates all the circuits though, if you were implying that they don't....well, maybe not the ones that go offroad.

Wow, RWD dominates all circuits, huh? Which cars are tearing up the SCCA T2 division right now? STi. Why was Audi's AWD Quattro system banned from racing circuits? It was dominating the RWD cars. There is no question that RWD is a great platform but a properly configured AWD car will dominate on a circuit. Audi proved that over and over.

98 is running your basic boltons/cam only LS1. 375 RWHP on the motor alone. Of course you would not use nitrous on the twistys, but he is making 500 WHP on nitrous.

Its not a canyon carver, but I bet ya can't keep up on the strip

BTW, the car is MUCH lighter than a 03 cobra, so comparing wheel horsepower in the two cars is kinda moot.

What are you running now 98, low 11s??
