Same on CF - C6400hp

My S2000 was way more twitchy and hard to control at the limit. The C6 is much easier to control at 10/10ths or 11/10ths.

Is it your first car with 470 ft lb?

What are your alignment settings? Particularly the rear toe? The C6 seems to be really sensitive to alignment and you need around 1/8" total rear toe in to keep the rear planted. Of course if you can't comprehend throttle MODULATION, there is no hope for you!

Comp mode just completely disables traction control while keeping active handlling on and allowing larger yaw angles in active handling before it intervenes.

post your alignment sheet specs make sure at least -1 camber front and rear and at least 1/8" rear toe in, take that thing out to an autocross and find the limit, I think you will find it very forgiving, especially coming from an S2000.
I am having the dealer fax the specs to me. My cobra mustangs all had 400+lb ft of torque... and I test drove a fit....

maybe it is me and my right foot.?

anyway... I am used to driving my racing S2000 which is 2700lbs with me in it, on R888's and like you guys mentioned, the torque of an S2000 means i can bury my foot except on ice....


ps - sorry to jack the thread.
