It was painful just getting through page 1. I'll call it delusional ignorance.

Based on their comments most of them seem pretty young. I remember youth it was like living in a fantasy world...then as you get older reality slaps you in the face many many times.

After spending tens of thousands of dollars on the wrong car, you're going to get very defensive about getting slaughtered at the track.

^ haha

Yeah a lot of hurt feelings over there. It's funny that when they are used to taking digs at the Camaro for being heavy they tend to get a little defensive when the 1LE destroys their top of the line track car.

I think the hardest part of reading through that thread is all the (factual) inaccuracies that I wanted to correct about the Camaro! lol
