My FC

I just need to ask a quick question to prove a friend wrong. He doesnt think my "ricer" can beat a corvette. My mods are in my signature

Please help me show this guy the light, and tell him the truth that he wont believe from me.

Re: My FC

it'd be easier if you just raced a vette and see what would happen. Or put your car on a dyno and tell us the numbers.

Re: My FC

hypathetically, it would also depend on what kind of competition you would take him in. you definitley have a lighter car than the vette, but both cars were designed to perform best in handling and the vette also with power. Good luck is all i have to say, and hopefully ur a better driver than whoever is in the vette.

sigh...i really need an FC...

Re: My FC

I drove an Z-06 on an Autocross course last weekend. Totally unimpressive. I was expecting a lot more wow. It felt BIG and cumbersome in the turns and it did not pull as hard as I was expecting coming out of the turns and through the straights.

The way everyone carries on about the mighty Z-06 my expectations were really high.

If you have about 330-350 RWHP you will give your buddy a good race and win.
