Try 500# heavier.

50/50 weight distribution?
It's not even in the ball-park.

Straight-line acceleration is for the drag-strip. I don't care about that any more than I do towing capacity.
This.

It will be fast, but it won't be that fast.

I am so frustrated. I have been reading all sorts of threads on this forum looking to the answer to ONE little question, and it continues to elude me. And PLEASE don't tell me to search, because I have searched many many times. I'm pretty sure the answer will never present itself, and I will be doomed to a life of ignorance. The question that I want answered is this: what kind of car does ImportConvert drive?









Just messing with you buddy.

what about a z then boosting it ? its the route i went up here in canda a 370 and a used z06 are closer in price range then down there. i bought my 370 with full intention of boosting it, look at all the boosted the cars on the forum, the engines are strong and can handle it. you guys are right tho 500whp is unusable on the street. its just the route i went/am taking another thing i found attractive with boost is i can turn it down if i want. but thats just me.
