But seriously, lets cut the crap about mustang vs. Z. Get two competent every day (for the sake of reality, none of us are the stig...) drivers with stock or relatively stock cars and romp them on the track to see who performs better.

Do real sports cars lose in handlin to a grocery getter, and a MUSTANG with a solid rear axle? Because if that is a real sports car, I don't want one.

Yeah, you are right, for an average to poor driver, the EVO wins because the car drives itself.

You mean how the EVO put down a slower lap time than the Z, with or without the straights?

Means about as much as the z losing to the mustang, right?

Not really, because the Z is down 80 HP and tied the GT minus the straights... So that says they're both faster than the EVO.

When you compare them based on facts and not subjective categories like "fun to drive, because the VDC will let you get away with having zero talent" then it's clear that the GT was the fastest car, the Z was second, and the Evo was third. Throw out the straightaways to take away the power/weight advantage of the GT and you have the GT and Z tied, but the Evo is still trailing.

All I'm saying is, there's a reason mr. Scca say down with mr & mrs Nissan to tell them that their precious little boy would need to be held back a grade, and it wasnt because he was beating up the evos.

Tied in the turns with a solid rear axle?

You don't actually own either of these cars, do you?

You must have a sweet FORZA garage, bro.

Do not forget. Only the Boss 302 with Leguna Seca Package has no rear seat so it can be defined as a real sports car.

No need to get defensive, lol. I'm a big fan of the Evo.

My wife drives the 370z. She thinks it is cute.

Guess since you have no retort to the 370z gettin moved down a class, you have to resort to personal insults.
