and end up in the wall... you don't need alot of power to be good at auto x or road tracks. all you need to do is maintain speed. you can have a camaro with 700 whp and still come in last place. its all about suspension and handeling. so a "womans" sports car as you call it will walk all over your muscle cars, ask trey he knows.. but if we do this i do think we need to keep it a chevy compact. so either a late model cavy or even a 4 door balt would make a good starting platform.

sure it would.. it would destroy a miata if it hit it. and it would kill it in a straight line. but jeffs non driving ass in his stock little red miata left me in the corners.. there was nothing i could do to keep up with him. i was sliding off the road and he was doing about 10 to 15 mph more than me. and i will leave mustangs and camaros in the corners.

i am more into drag racing than auto x. takes alot more consentration to do auto x than drag strip. which is why i like drag strip better = less concentrating. but if u have a 700hp camarro goin auto x, u can also do drifting something else to add to the list.

i havent decided what i wanna do just yet. i have a block sittin in the garage, a 350 and a 454. i wanna make the 350 into a 327 and twin charge it or stroke it to a 383 so i can drop either one in my s-dime. i have 14 more years to decide as i just refinanced my house then it will be mine. i dont know what i am goin to do just yet.

yeah anthony, but just messing around. nothing serious. and only a few times. i had a mustang get behind me the other night coming home from my grandparents house and he was right on my bumper so i started messing with him. he was a little faster than me on the straights but i left him when the road got curvy. i saw his headlights going everywhere in the second turn it looked like he almost spun out but saved it. he slowed down after that. and i messed around with my friend mitch a long time ago. he is the guy with the black trans am. he is about as fast as i am and he couldn't keep up with me in the corners.
