Then the tires wear out every 7500 miles at best. Meanwhile if I try to drive the car in rain or cold weather the power is absolutely unusable.
A factory warranted Supercharged C7 that has advanced traction control, launch control, performance traction management and electronic LSD, all of which actually working, and able to hook up on the street with street tires, is a tempting proposition... And if you can bump the power up on that by a bit, then that's really all I could ever ask from a car

Nonsense more power, less throttle.... up until you are coming out a corner, and than you can SMASH on the pedal and repeat...works for me, DD 998RWHP on 9 psi YSI 91 Octane, 345 Toyo proxies T1R - Talent

DOWN SIDE.....definitely drive like a GRANNY in rain!!!

Although I do agree that a 700 RWHP C7 would probably be more optimal on the track with the average driver.
