    Put it like this.....At little talladega road coarse two weeks ago.

    A G35 from Z1 with a pop charger and an exhaust system was running circles (litterly) around Supercharged and turbo charged cars.

    why?

    Well #1 she proved (yes Russel's Wife) that brakes + tires and great driving are more important than power. In both heats she lapped the field full of 400+ hp 300zx, 350Z and G35s. Power is good if you can put it down.....otherwise it's just there to oversteer and slow you down.

    Driver mod is the best thing for any car, especially when you are throwing more HP on the car. I agree that putting hte HP you have to good use is better than just throing more power at the equation.

    There is a big difference between "tuners" and "drivers"

    One is about talking about his car.......the other can show what his car can actually do.
