Don't forget the Europeans. I guess I don't get the infatuation with the 1/4 mile, it is only one small aspect of the overall performance of a car, any grease monkey can slap a hemi into a Chevelle and go straight. Check out the video of the Carrera GT's on the Autobahn. That Cobra was doing 160 and the GT's flat left him in the dust. Come on USA lets put out some cars that give the Eurpeans a run for their money! There is only one American car that ranked in the top ten with Top Gear's Power laps all of the rest are European. Of the top 20 only 3 are American and 1 Japanese.

The US has put out only 2 cars in the last 20 years that can perform like the Europeans, surely GM, Ford, & Chrysler can do better than that.

Re: C6 with some mods

hmm Z06 has pulled 1.0+ on the skid pad for cornering. The brand new one will be low 11's 1/4 mile and top speed of 190.

There's been other fast cars you guys need to research

Show me a vid of your 11 second car chirping every gear and someone might value your opinion.

Yeah, this coming from someone who owns a Cavalier! Not exactly the essence of American muscle my friend.

Wait...so its good to chirp on every gear? See I always thought that wheel chirping was caused by the tires losing traction on the clutch release. Oh and wait...if your tires are losing traction on the track doesn't that actually keep you from going as fast?

If you want chirpping get a bird. Until then learn how to drive that car so you actually USE the HP under the hood.

chirpping hee hee

Thank you.... finally.
Some kid told me his Sclipse was soo fast because it would chirp in 3rd....i told him i could make my truck chirp in 3rd.... he was like STFU your truck doesnt have the power...
well lets just say that when shifting from 2nd to 3rd i doube clutched, while in neutral i red lined it then droped the clutch when hitting 3rd....well needless to say he now thinks my truck the fastest damn truck with in a 50mile radius....when it is really a stock B3000 with a 4.10 rear end....
but it was still a hella fast c6....damn thoes things are sexy... not the handle of an elise....but damn close at a damn close price too...with a lot more power and comfert....

Re: C6 with some mods

Ok, was a corvette just compared to a supercar? a corvette costs a hell of a lot less than say a GT40, etc, etc. And If you stick the extra money that you saved into mods, hell you can get a vette with cheater slicks to hit 60mph in under 2 seconds....A corvette has a hell of alot of comfort still and sells for 50k...Ok, that is still a hell of a lot for people like me but compared to the supercars, its damn cheap....Ok...
That is my two cents, I am a fan of american cars, and the quarter mile is what I really care about, sure, top speed is nice, but how fast can it get there???? If it has a top speed of 220mph, I don't care, there isn't anywhere in our STATE that you can reach that insanely fast speed.

Re: C6 with some mods

elise is 46k....or there bouts...you just have to wait forever for them to make it.... where as the vett is mass prodiced....
however the elise is basically a bit high perfomrance gokart... reports of way too little cab space for 2 passengers and though they are one of the best handleing cars on the market (especially for the price) they ride pretty harshly.... elise is 100% perfomance oriented for AutoX and road racing etc... the Vett is ment to be a daily commuter that is still hella fast....
i wasnt comparing them....i was making an analogy... well sort of ocmparing them... lol

Re: C6 with some mods

Some of you guys know absolutely nothing about cars, racing, or the automotive industry and it's obvious in your posts. Get your noses out of the magazines and away from the TV and go to a track or something.

Chirping isnt going to effectively slow your time. Trying to soften some aspects to stop the chirping will most likely slow your time down. Wheel spin is what slows down cars, chirping is about an inch of tire movement.

an inch of slip is an inch less that the car is pushing forward with. Do the pros have chirping (top fuel, funny car, and pro mod) no why because they are putting all the HP onto the track and not doing bird calls.
