He doesn't even have to own it. He can rent one and take both cars to the track. The Z is a great car. But some people are just unrealistic about the Z potential. The Z would need turbos to run with any of those cars on a track and if you are only stage 1? Its a drivers race. You need at least stage 2 to solidify the win. Until those cars mod too... at the end of the day. Its about how much money you have to make yourself a winner.

agree up to a point, but most would agrew pushrod engine and suspension design have nothing to do with it. Its as dumb as the Corvette guys who think all import sucks and vice versa

Hey, at least I had both cars and have some real world data. Let me know how bad the leaf springs or OHV engines are working when you get one.

Corvette ZR1, GTR...

Both very fast, both very cool.

I'd trade the Z even up for either one happily.

Glad to see that

I know you were very selective before purchase.

When I did a time trial a few years back, they hosted a car show along side. Most of the guys thought it was cooler to be dusting it rather than driving it.

Maybe they do have a point because their purse money was highet than our pot

I dont get all the import/domestic hating. You get the same BS on the Corvette forums too (some are borderline racists) . is there no such thing as respectfully disagree on something?

Unless there is a "Car Guy" forum, it's not possible. Fanboys are fanboys.
