Not thin skinned at all. I'm actually one of those CAR enthusiasts here that likes all of the Big 3 muscle/pony cars. I just happen to own a Mustang right now. I just was pointing out something is all.

I would think they need to switch something up....i know the went to the F1 super cars.....but when its only doing a 12.8 on motor trend(and yes, i know that's because of the spin) something has got to change. A ton of power with no hook.....its sort of a waste. The Z06 has the same tires and seems to launch ok....never drove one, so that's just from what I read. My friend just ordered a 2011 gt500, so I am geeked to finally drive in one and see it move.....trust me....I would have zero problems owning or buying one.....they are sweet.....just seems like traction is more of an issue with it, than with other cars of similar caliber.
