FC is definitely much cheaper, but FCs just don't look good imo
Looks are subjective....but they don't look better than FDs (80% of the time) I want to build a FC someday though

I would have smoked any S with the stock engine and downpipe (and did, for seven years...I must have raced at least 20 S2000s and never lost)

mountain road 'racing'...where are the standards people. I propose a new rule if anyone on car talk refers to anything on the street as 'racing' and not 'eat turds' they are instantly banned.

So Zx-blahblah posts would read like this

What would be the significant difference between say, a turboed s2k (inline pro for example) and an ls1 FD?

Wouldnt they perform pretty close, handling and power (minus weak rear), still be pretty reliable, minus all the other problems I mentioned above?
