For the guy that lives somewhere where there is no snow at all, then it would only be a status symbol to buy an Evo. I won't deny the validity of your claims Scott, but it's pretty pointless to either of us since we will never personally hit those marks. |

the interior design looks very supra-ish.

I've seen it first hand at the Nopi drag wars in Vermont 2 years ago, no one up there made it under a 12 flat. They aren't made for it. Cornering is a different story, most good setups on them can easily pull over 1g in corners.

Re: one of the baddest cars on the planet
awd is not made for cornerig and rwd is far superior
as for the snow, yea its prob a good choice, but its not magic, it not like you're going to do any racing in the snow you'll just crash and die. im sure you can get around better than a rwd v8 car, since i can barely drive mine in the rain... thats what 4x4 trucks are for |

Re: one of the baddest cars on the planet
My $.02
In drag racing pushrod powered RWD v8s will always rule. No question. I dont like the looks of the new viper, but 600hp will still move that heavy beast pretty quick. Nothing sounds better than a turbo v8 at full throttle. Nothing. Skyline GTR is heavy and underpowered. I look forward to eating it alive in my $1500 CRX. Even porsche uses those stupid failure hose clamps. Apparently they are cheaper than wormgear. Get over it. When I have money (read: many years from now) I will have a Notchback mustang with a stupid-huge turbo on it. Thanks. |
