    C6 Corvette to suck the doors off competition- By Bob Lutz

    Let's review: -The corvette was America's performance icon until the introduction of the Viper in 92. Since then, it has been all us. -DC has done a decent job keeping the Viper in front. The SRT-10 is way ahead and will continue to lead at least until the introduction of the C6 Z06 which...

    What is the strangest or BEST reaction you've had to driving your viper?

    Re: What is the strangest or BEST reaction you\'ve had to driving your viper "the tires look big." My response was "that's because in spite of what you hear, size matters."

    VIPER VS VETTE LONG TERM

    There's been a good deal of recent attention paid to Paolo's supercharged GTS. Before he had Jason Heffner supercharge the car, I think Paolo said he had over 70K miles on it. In reworking the engine for the super charger Jason mentioned it was still in good shape internally. Paolo can give...

    First time Zaino buyer needs your input

    Hans Christian; I had to crack up at some of the comments made about the work of applying Zaino--the guys do have a point there. However, I do use it and find it beautiful and easy to maintain once applied. Further, it never fails to impress. My parking space at work is (naturally) in the...

    Porsche 911 Turbo, upgraded.

    Chris; I'll cut right to it. If you want to bust him, supercharge the car. After that, 3.55s won't matter. We have a bunch of great tuners but my guy, Jason Heffner is in Baltimore so relatively close. http:\\www.heffnersperformance.com. I'm guessing your friend would be impressed with...

    Help! ? about Zaino

    David; Good move on the zaino. I was skeptical but the stuff works. I have 5 or so coats and think more is better. Another thing I did taking Zaino's advice was to apply the gloss enhancer between coats. Really works. You're in for a treat.

    Miles per gallon

    I've modified the engine a bit further and need to update my signature but I'm getting about 11 around town and 18 or so on the highway. Earlier this summer I filled up with Sunoco 94, got right on the freeway, got into 6th gear as soon as possible, drove 100 miles and checked my mileage--best...

    compliments

    Great thread. It's amazing how much good karma we can put out there by being gracious. Cool. My best story yet occurred when a gentleman approached me, admired the car, extended his hand and said: "you're living my dream." Makes you think...

    First time I scratched my rims.

    I hear you. The bad part about my system is the added expense. The good part is that every spring I rotate--get to be new again. Jon B, found me a good price on single wheels and a local guy will do the swap for $20.

    First time I scratched my rims.

    I hear you about the sick feeling this causes. I drive the car a lot and keep a spare front and rear wheel. Periodically, I rotate the scratched ones out and send to Ye Old Wheel Shop in Maryland and replace with the spares. System is working so far.

    Why don't you drive more???

    Re: Why don\'t you drive more??? 9800 miles on an 02 and more coming. In fact, when I don't drive it, I miss the experience immensely (tell me when you're doing something as mundane as cruising at 3000 RPM you don't feel like you could pull the world if you could get traction!). I live in the...
