Nice man. I had an '05 SRT-4 Stage 2/3 hybrid inbetween some older vettes, a Stealth TT, and a Trans Am WS-6.
I came across an older AMG a couple of years ago in my SRT-4. I knew I could hang with him from a roll but we went from a stop a couple times and each time I lost because I could not put the power down to the front wheels and just spun.
After that, I said screw this, going back to RWD. So went with the best bang for the buck at the time (and still actually) - C5 Z06.
Never going back to anything else. Staying with Vettes from here on out.
