Look, we get ****heads on this board too, but they seem to get banned faster here than on CF. I'm a senior member on CF too, and in general, the guys that actually own Corvettes are decent car guys that love all makes and models. I usually stay out of those threads or correct the errors, just as many of us do here.

FWIW, if stock for stock 996TTs are beating C6Zs or C6Zs are beating CGTs I'd like to see the videos.

BTW, ONERAREVIPER needs an AS5 wippin for his stupidly written post. Is he by any way married to the guy you confronted ?

Haha that's pretty cool! Anyway i dont see it as a big deal on either end or for people in general to get pissed about it. Only time i would care, would be if i actually gave someone the challenge (a la Craig) and the owner turned it down!

Damn Craig - Thems is fightin' words!

Here's my favorite post, a little back-draft from a fellow homie of his,

"Only problem is that at least one of those guys has offered his Porsche up for "smoking" and you turned him down; not once but twice you wimped out. As far as the "car dude" thing is concerned, I like some performance cars more than others; but I dont' as you say hate any of them. So speak for yourself. And take that stupid frame off you car because most who see you with it think you're a dork!"

Thanks!

I agree 100%, the only Viper I have lost to (and I know there are more crazy fast Vipers out there) is my buddies 1400+ RWHP Viper TT, he too owns a Supra and loves the plates on both of my cars

Was reading Autoweek and came accross this, made me smile with all these Corvette vs. 911 posts lately:

"With my 911 S, I now understand why guys who can afford to spend $30,000 more than the cost of a Corvette for roughly the same performance do so," said one former C5 Corvette owner. "Rides at speeds that are white-knuckle affairs in the Corvette are casual, one-hand-on-the-wheel events in the 911."

Peter and I are good friends, but we haven't had our cars together yet. His car is definitely capable of smoking my Supra.

The Viper I lost to is a local TT Viper
