My C6 approx. lb per bhp = 3, Bilstein Sports, Hotchkis bars, and PS2s I'm a worthy opponent...LET'S RUN!!!

Incidentally, my Hoosier R6 slicks just arrived and I had them custom groove for moderate street use...sticks like a MF'ker.





I like your tires however the car I am refering to can pull 1.499g and only weighs 1650 lbs. It can do that with less than 100 horse power. with the 200 horse it is scary fast. It will take several years for me to get up that way but its good banter for now. JJ
