Default probably no real need....that 7.0 liter has been pretty quick>>>

and adding a supercharger potentially could add reliability issues.....

The ferrari's are fast...but i think the Vette is faster in the straight..

Default Errrr- He ran the banking "backwards". Looks weird. and----->

I bet looks are deceiving. Imagine there is nothing "placid " about guiding that thing around there at 200+ .


There seem to be some afflictions developing on here. Porsche fetish. Corvette addictions.

Same inside a fighter. It's only when the sierra hits the rotating element that it gets exciting!
