The brz running 14.9@94mph was pretty impressive.

All the exhausts sound like **** except the shelby and even it need's more growl.

Crappy rear end! It needs a 3.71 or 4.10.

Cool stuff....fun to watch

Still get to grin at the Chevy owners, so that's good.

That might be the second thing to do.


Pause the video at around 2:12 and you'll have your answer for what it needs right away. Better weight distribution (than 57/43) for better bite. From the far end, it's Camaro, Mustang, Lamborghini, Nissan.

The sad thing is the comparison of vehicles. Why is the Camaro in there and not a Corvette?
