How many F1's haul *** in the straights?
Where are the MG's and Triumphs now?
100 hp is still gutless no matter how good the twisties are.
The Z is very competitive quarter mile, auto cross, and track so rethink about the tool. It just may be the tool behind the drivers seat that's holding the Z back.
