god, my friends at ricecop.com would have a field day with all the riceisms in this post...

it's funny how many new "technologically advanced" "racecars" can and do lose to outdated dinocars all the time.

sure you can get a 4 banger to outperform a v8 but why bother? with all the money you spend on that project you can get a v8 to do far better for far less green.

and there's a lot more than technology that determines power or speed. look at all the nascars (not a big fan but whatever) that use pushrodded engines and make ridiculous power and have equally ridiculous top speeds...tell me your little four banger could even keep up. technology schmechnology. it's advanced the industry obviously but you can't base an arguement of this magnitude solely on that.

also, before you tell someone that your car can "walk all over" theirs, it may be good to find out what they're packin'. don't wanna bring a knife to a gun fight!

thanks
