lol, again bringing up points about using something it was not designed to do.
If you make a truck to go fast in a straight line, then that is what it is designed to do. Arguing about using it for something else and it not being quick is a moot point. These trucks are lowered with traction bars to eliminate wheel hop, tire pressure is lowered. Nothing about them is modded to help it make a turn at 120mph. Hell for that matter you could say the same thing about 6 second funny cars, "Well yeah its fast, but I could beat it around a track".
Trucks are good for whatever you make them to be, albeit drag racing, towing the boat/camper (or up in Alberta both at the same time), off roading ect. Mine is a good winter daily driver, 4wd and a bunch of torque and its a blast to drive in the winter. Its something that even if I wanted to I couldn't drive the Z.
If you make the Z into a drift car then you're not going to be the quickest in the 1/4 mile, because simply your car is not setup to do that.
I realize that this is probably a losing battle on a forum like this, but hey I need something to do at work. haha
