Not Ranked
This is getting out of hand... X, I agree with your choices - have you seen the Elise at the track? Holy cow is it quick!
The new vette is looking good too....
Grumpy - the $300,000 vettes have bigger engines and handle as well.... think a Cobra can keep up with a Z06? at all? anywhere? On the other hand, my plastic car has a trunk... what a dilemma...
I believe everything has been said here and I believe engine size has little to do with lap times really in road cars - as I stated it is cornering speed that matters - if you can do 105 around turn one at Thunderhill in a pathetic cheesebox Honda, which I can - and risk a really big incident in the Cobra at 90 in the same turn which I have also done - it doesn't take long to figure out that acceleration notwithstanding ,if I have to brake to a lower speed to turn it won't be long before I am seriously out of sight in the portable dishwasher - assuming the track has a large number of corners relative to its length - which most do.... I can't even get close to my Honda times at Thunderhill even with a 427 FE... I look better though.. see the Superformance website.. The wallpaper with the blue car at the track is me...
Vettestr - I agree the fridge has no aesthetics whatsoever, but next track event I will either take you or let you do a lap or two in it and I guarantee you will want one for the track days...
Let's all just be happy we look so cool to young people even though most of us are so old...hahaha
