Aside from the 370/5.0 comparisson...

How is it compared to your (I'm assuming) fully built s2k? I'd like to see that...

Basically, IF one was to fully mod a Z to full track worthiness, how do you think it would compare?

It's really hard to say. My S was not really set up to optimize circuit track performance, just to make power and lay it down, whereas every mod I made on my Z was focused on improving feel. I imagine it would be hard to set up an s2k that could keep up with a fully prepped FI Z, provided you could find a way to dispose of all the heat in the Z's engine bay.

/\ not always, but sometimes, perhaps, but then again, it's human nature to want to believe that what you have now is better than what you used to have, noboby wants to think their new car isn't better than their old car.

Alot folks on here keep bashing the new 'stang for no good reason too, I find that extremely annoying as well, esp in a 5.0 specific thread. I think everyone needs to just take a breath and count to 10.

/\ the children don't factor into the Z folks' mind cause we don't have back seats.
