I was talking to billy when i said vettes are slow i was not refering to anything that was said in this thread. I was said at felini's between him and i one night.billy knows what i was talking about i was not refering to you. and how do you know the skinnies were gripping better. the only reason from what i saw was because the fatter tires the front where gone and i was pushing hard every time i went up to the mtns. I said when we got back down that i was surprized at the grip of my skinnies because that were more than the worn out front fatties. i think you missed or forgot some of the context or that mtn run. i know its been i while but i remember. i never tried to pull away at any point from you but i did pick the pace a little when you dropped back because you didnt want to push your car and tires so much because of wear.... ? whatever and i dont remember ever passing up there. i remember i was the leader due to the noobs and you being a noob with your gto. so please clarify where i ever said i had a super handling G35. I'm done here i just think you forgot or was just missing out some context to make me look bad when i was just playing a round. you know the joking where we drive fat pigs...
