Lol. No im exagerating somewhat, it takes time and money to make any car fast, what I ment was to modify a car into a "racecar" would be far cheaper than actually buying a ferrari. I should have worded it better. :P

this should be good

A stripped Dsm w/ parts from homeboi depot. Not exactly more reliable than a ferrari, doesnt look half as good but cheap and effective. If I dont have to crack the block open, then its "lightly modded."

GT2 stomps all over a base turbo. But since we are throwing ease of 10s out there. Know what it takes to get a C6 Z06 into the 10s? Tires.

a nitrousd c6 zo6, although with a ferrari i could pull any bitch i want, and i dont think a c6 z06 runs a 10 sec 1/4 with tires. hah.

Wrong link, but here is the 10 second run...

Any Japanese car able to do that? Considering the NSX is about $25,000 more, they damn well should. Wonder what an F430 on slicks would run....
