Too bad you were racing one with a shitty driver though.

Actually even if both cars had pro drivers, the Z would still win. More WHP and better gearing

LOL!! Ok, "circumstances" huh?. I see... That's funny, you say it would "still" win; as if the Z06 didn't get raped 5 times in a row. It didn't win ONCE! Hey, I'm just going to pay attention to the disclaimer in your sig from now on. Thanks for all this, really. And have a happy new year.

A 3.42 final drive is better because they were on the highway? Or you mean the gears in the transaxle?

LOL why did you edit?

Z got raped 5 times in a row because it was the same shitty driver.

I said "still" meaning on a sarcastic note, the Z never loss because of this "shitty driver".

I can get into a 8 second car and run 13s and lose to a 12 second car. "I" lost, the car didnt.

We're talking about the cars now. Hence why i said professional drivers, because they bring out the MOST of the cars.

Happy new year to you too mang!

lol this is funny.

We can go on and on for another 12 rounds nitpicking our sentences in this thread and past threads but facts are facts.

The Z will always be the faster car unless:

-A shitty driver is driving the Z
-The opponent clearly has an even more faster car
-Opponent breaks

We already discussed the first one multiple times. Theres no point in beating a dead horse. Unless you believe that all Z owners suck at driving, then we have a shot. Well hate to break the bad news but even with a shitty driver on a STOCK Z, it will take quite of bit of power to beat it. And stock Z's are getting rare. Very easy to make them fast. This video in this thread proves it. How much HP does he have and just BARELY "beats" it if you wanna call it that.

Go look up your buddy darkphantom. He has like 440RWHP and got whopped by a bolt on Z06. There goes that.

Glad everyone lightened up. It's not too serious, but I guess the new Z's are.

As if bolt on z06's wernt enough I think next year or early this year well have to worry about the 600+hp, from the factory, brand new ZR1's. Unless theyre calling it the ZL1. Fortunately for us at $100,000 we wont see too many of them.

Or if people figure out they can supercharge their new ls3 vette for much cheaper (by about $40,000less) for the same power, some of us may be doomed!

If these are the types of things you guys are worrying about, i suggest you throw up the white flag already because we (rotary) can NOT compete with the V8, especially the LSx model. You cannot.

Regardless if all you have to say is, "yeah yeah your car is also 80 grand, 100 grand etc etc", the car is still out there, and will still be bought and produced because there are people willing to buy them.

The ZR1 is an absolute beast. If you see that on the road, change lanes so he cant see you or at least have enough power to be of worthy competition. And if you do, cough cough ledgebmx cough cough, get it on film because we dont wanna have to go through this again

Hey Matty, be sure to read 1Quik's "Disclaimer". I think it may come in handy pretty soon. It really helps!
