I went to the sky site and checked the specs. I honestly think that it'll give us a run for our money in stock form.

turbo cars arent that great at such lower rpm starts as well....but yea it would have been a better race if both started at a good speed, say 40-45mph..

it'd be a close race i'm pretty sure. good run

so how much does 'specialized bealer breakin procedure' add to the sticker on that car.

Someone posted on here a couple races from a dig vs a solstice GXP.. I believe he won by a length or two every race to whatever mph (the S2K that is).
