The exhaust doesn't give THAT much on a N/A car; even the Vette. Putting in a new CAM is where you gain your hp.Quote:

its because a Z06 is a super car. i hear that alot. ive only autocrossed one but DAMN! but u can NEVER use 1st gear. even tho it goes to 60
The GTR is a supercar, then, with that logic.Quote:

Note: Audi came into the season with less horsepower and more weight than (most) of their competitors.
From quick googleing, it appears that AWD is banned in many racing series (from what I can tell: American Le Mans, Grand Am, GTS and every open wheel series) because it is considered an "unfair advantage".
In the series where AWD is allowed, there is usually a significant weight penalty and many times a tire size penalty as well.
its up to par with any "super car" out there. i can see where u are coming from. and i would never think that of a vette. they just dont hit me as one. but until u drive one fast, u will not understand
Did you drive a C5 or C6 ZO6? They are two totally different animals.Quote:

Mr. Matthew, you seem to have a pretty big chip on your shoulder. Considering you're a newb and the company you have right now, you should be far more humble than cocky.
My :2cents: .

It's old because you want everyone to forget about your dumb move. Maybe you shouldn't have talked so much in that thread then, huh? Better yet, not pulled that kind of move in the first place.Quote:

APM, you are drowning in this thread. Stop posting.

Listen, I've been DRIVING longer than you've been ALIVE. So I seriously doubt you have any car experience that I couldn't trump you on. I've OWNED, not borrowed to drive a hot lap on the track, and RACED more cars than you could fathom. I was running real fast cars back when lap belts hung on two clips on the headliner. You probably have no clue what that is, do you? Since you're a newb around here, you should probably eat a little humble pie before walking around with some kind of king ding-a-ling chip on your shoulder. Ruiner and LF were right all along. It took you pages to figure out what we all knew since the beginning.
Why am I "cocky"? Because I called YOU that? Talk about original. :rolleyes:
can u tell me if its open? back to the ring. wht do u think should classify a car for the street car track record?Quote:
