C5 road course challenge in DFW
yeah like i said drag racing has never been my bag....i really love top speed events.....whenever i am posed with the question "wanna race?" i usually respond "how many Turns?"...the corvette guy emailed me so i will see what we can setup ...

i agree super afc on our cars is a joke.....thats why i went with the standalone power fc with commander....i am very happy with it...i think dynoflash is cool...but with the way i modify my car ...it isnt cost effective....and Al is a crackhead wierdo!
So somewhat getting back on topic, while I own and love the Evo and think it's an absolute blast to drive on a road course, an equivalent driver will produce faster times in a stock Z06 than an Evo every time. The Z06 weighs less, has more HP/torque, and handles just as well (if not better) than a stock Evo. Sure for some amount of money (perhaps less than the total cost of a Z06) you could make your Evo faster, but that's hardly the point. What you should do is try to get a really good driver to crush your friend's Z06 using something like a miata. MSR is really a driver's track and a good driver will easily overcome the performance differences of the two cars.

Seriously, I would be honored to see some fast Evo's out on the roadcourse using them as they were intended versus being relegated to some glorified drag racer.
Xstang is much more delusional than I am.
