It wouldnt be so bad if you just commented "That Chassis looks like it would collapse if you breathed on it. Not something I want to do over 100mph in."
but when you throw in a pic of a Z06 chassis (which probably wouldnt fair any better at 100mph) it just wreaks of impotence.

you avg 5 post a day and you dont own a 370.
Go away already.
Cry me a river. I think you forgot the name of the forum you are in.

Steel tubing is nice, but I would rather a more substantial frame in addition. If steel tubing alone were so great then a lot of high end cars are being built wrong. The reason they use steel tubing is one of cost, not design superiority.

Do you honestly believe that? High end cars are being built with carbon fiber and sheet metal because most high end customers don't want steel bars running across the cabin. High cost doesn't equal superiority. Ask any race team the strongest part of a racecar frame and they'll tell you its the roll cage. Don't get me wrong, modern canopy's can be built to be just as strong as steel tubing, Formula One yes, but not in a vette.

Porsche GT3 R Hybrid


Last but not least, a 1.8 million dollar (est.) Pagani Zonda R

It was probably the beautiful woven curves of the ceramic coated headers exiting that AMG V12 that put you over the edge.
