Tomarrow!! I took the Mini today. I am putting foot to *** tomarrow w/ the TII. Trust me it was painful having the mini when all that imprssive hardware showed up. I love rocking their world.

Pretty cool. It's surprising how fast the built F bodies can get. It's surprising how fast VW rabbits can get! There are a couple VWs that are always very close to getting top time at local events, along with a guy I know with a modded FD (or when he's driving another guys LS-1 FD). No one runs FCs around here, except me.

Actually I was kind of amazed at the F-bodies times. It "looked" like it was going so much faster.
The Z-06 went just before the F-body. The Z-06 just scooted around the course turning all the corners nice and neat and tight and houling *** throught the straights. - It has a time of 29.2 (very short course)
The F-body goes - tires smoking screaming along *** out sideways in soem of the turns sometimes he would just twitch the wheel and make it slide around a tight corner and punch it on out of there. 29.9 was his best time. But it looked like he was working really hard to get it whereas the Z-06 was just out on a drive.
It pained me to watch this and have my Mini there that was running a 31.5 best time.
My RX-7 would have clobbered them both, I have beat that Z-06 many times.
