So you are an actual race car driver? We need more ppl with actual experience like you to post your opinion. Like someone said being fast and reliable is $$$. I understand that but some ppl don't.
Nope, I'm too old and my ass hole puckers down on the seat when going fast these days. Our 302R is driven professionally by a 17yo kid from the Woodlands Texas. I am a team owner but have driven the 302R on track and it's a blast.

There's an old adage.....if you race it, you're gonna break it. Running a car hard on the track breaks things. I'm optimistic (hopeful?) that GM used some of the price to test/build parts to withstand hard sessions at the track. It would be nice to have a car that you both drive to the track AND drive home from the track. If you end up needing a trailer to get your Z28 home, then you might as well just get a track car.

Personally I like the Z28 and with some proper testing and set up expect it to be very fast at most tracks.
