Then again, what do you care, you short timer. :-D

Like I said, it would have been a very bad way to go...but you could do it.

Z goes fast enough stock for most tracks. Problem is that it doesn't want to stop after about half a lap. My issues are with the brakes and the VDC coming into play. Also the car feels heavy to me. In that price range I would seriously look into a S2000. The Z is a good car but, it will soon be replaced by a C6 Z51.

Why not wait 12 months for the z06? They'll have all the bug worked out (if any) worked out by then.
