Easily answered.... just look at their car and say the competition out here really doesn't require more.

There is no place for feelings when it comes to cars. Its not like some is making fun of you for being disabled or talking about you're children. People need to lighten up, but it is funny

FACT IS there are some LLT's here faster than some stock & MODDED 6.2. sure, its the rare exception, but true non the less. (and even rear wheel powered too LOL)

and most of us V6 guys claim to be the worlds fastest either.

c'mon..enough BS lol
re-read his first statement. you missed what he was trying to say. he was trying to say in general a SS owner will state a fact and a v6 owner will take it negative every time.

I thought this whole thread has been tongue in cheek....I wouldn't worry about anybody getting their feelings hurt.

But seriously, my V4 6th Gen is gonna smoke your tired LS4 V8.
