Save Your Money....
...and buy a civic.
Put some WIDE tires on it, and then it will handle better than a corvette. In fact, it will beat the vette in corners.
At least that's what I was told today. And was challenged to a race to prove it.
Is there a farm somewhere that grows these types of idiots?

Tell that person to put their money where their mouth is and go to a track. Shouldn't take long to put them in their place. But, I have to agree that you could probably save some money if you bought a Civic.

Last time I checked there was no sanctioning body for "corner" events...what, is the speed measured right at the apex??
I guess if all you have is a Civic then all you can compete in is "corner" events.
Does that air at 3:00 AM on Speed?

I get that all the time from the young kids I work around. "If my car had this or that it would kill your Z06!" Well do that to your car, come grab me and we'll hit the track. No one has taken me up yet. Funny stuff!
