Signicant ass whooping.

And it's a loaded 2ss, for those who thought the MT comparison was unfair.

It's like 1998 all over again.

I have to admit, that seems like a typo. 50-70 in top gear must be an auto kicking down a few gears against a manual just left in top gear.

Very impressive numbers for a ringer that will gain 100-150 lbs before they get to people. And let's be honest, GM has all of the magazines in their pocket.

Thumbs up

Great article! Want to read the rest.
I went looking for the magazine, but hasn't arrived to my local Barnes or cvs.
How to cure that understeer? it has very narrow wheels upfront.
