"I never would have thought I would hear positive comments about a Corvette coming from all you Ford guys."

I think most of us are car guys. There is no denying the potent combination that a Z06 offers. A neighbor of mine, who is also NASA and SCCA driving instructor and damn fast, gave me a ride on the track in his modified Z06. Lots of suspension and brake work, super sticky 13" tires and about 500HP. The thing is a rocket. Very seldom do you feel a car run that hard, unless of course I am driving my car!

Lots of great cars out there from lots of different manufacturers.

By the way, last autocross I was at I was right in there with all the C4, C5 and Z06 vettes. Faster than many. Any my car is not set up for autocross. Plus I am not the fastest Cobra there by a long shot. One of the guys at the Fling bested my time by nearly four seconds! And I was one of the fast guys.
