That was too funny. Where do people find the unbelievable audacity and lack of self respect to do something like that? Then I saw someone actually donated $10.00! That nearly killed me!

Did you see the other one? A poster opened a gofundme page because his feelings got hurt (although obviously a joke while the other guy was serious). Someone donated $5. LOL.

If you think you want performance and you will be making upgrades or mods to the car, get the V8 you won't be disappointed. Yeah you can throw a turbo on a V6 but you can throw a turbo on a V8 and be ahead of the game, in my opinion.

I am running my Supercharged V6 on track and run TT and American Iron classes , outrunning track prepped 1LEs and 5.0s consistently. Only thing the car really lacks is torque. But proper technique on track more than makes up for that.

The car is certainly capabale in the right hands with the right upgrades.

I generally run 2:03s at Heartland Park on street tires. While most of the V8s that are prepped are running 2:07-9s.

The truth is in the numbers. Don't let anyone tell you the car isn't capable of doing great things.
