please explain what you mean by "breaking traction." because although the tires were screaming I didn't see a loss of traction in the video.

I have been riding Sportbikes since 1981.....ive done enough manual shifting in traffic to last a lifetime

Make mine an auto ....please n thanks

I enjoy the six speed manual. I feel like I'm more connected to the car. Its my first stick in nearly 20 years. I seldom sit in traffic but when I do I start to reconsider my preference. :-)

I guess he doesn't consider paddle shifters having control.

I'll be taking the manual. but that's per my choice. although it's been proven in F1 and other series that paddle shifters are better.

I for one love the way the ZL1 handles especially at Nurburgring.
I have seen videos of a lot of cars that can't make it around this track...
Especially older videos....loads of laugh there...especially on the corners that makes em flip over... riot....

Not sure if you could find a dealer that would take it as a trade with it being tuned/modified there is no warranty. I looked into it back in May and couldn't find a cooperative dealer, even the one I bought it from didn't want to touch it which is why I sold it privately.

It hasn't been tuned, though. That's a good deal of protection right there against warranty denial. He's using GMPP suspension parts, and non-invasive engine modifications that are all fully-reversible. I'm sure it wouldn't be too difficult to find a buyer...especially if sold privately like you mentioned.

BUT....TAG DON'T SELL IT!!!
