Just ask to have the thread moved to Off-topic.

No Kidding!

Jeez, I just thought I would share some car news about a corvette (which obviously Frayed didn't read about). I guess you guys don't care about what's going on in the tuner world with other cars.

Sorry to bother you guys

My 2 cents:

Turbo cars on the track are absolutely great, you have to keep them at high rpms thus benefiting from all the f*cking hp.....now on autocross I disagree........try autocrossing a turbo car with lots of boost and you will end up spinning no matter what........

Give me a 9 second car that can handle like the S2000 and then you just made my best Christmas ever........wait, I already got Playstation II and Grandturismo....thanks anyways

about the mclaren vs corvette comment, well alot of things. the mcllaren doesnt have a drag racing suspension setup. im sure that might make a difference. the way they are geared seems to me that they are mostly about top end power, even though 11's is insanely fast. the mclaren is like 500 or more pounds lighter than the corvette. im not sure about mid enigne cars in drag racing, as far as launching all all that. that c5 vette even puts the turbo vipers to shame! incredible. i wont buy a c5 just because the back is so ugly. well, when i drop in my sr20det maybe ill get a chance to race one of your s2000 guys.. too bad i cant tune up my ka24de though. anyways sorry for rambling!
