8.76% faster? HA! Everybody knows that it's closer to 8.9%! I don't know where you get YOUR info (Really, loved your reply to him.... classic!).

Plus, they go 0- 60 in a really fast amount of time, because they are pulling, not pushing (just the other day, I had to give a ride to somebody from work... as soon as we started accelerating, he said, "Oh, wow, you said this car was rear wheel drive, and I can feel it... you can feel how the rear is pushing!").

Okay, but about that 'Vette not being able to corner... sounds like a fella trying to prove how smart he is, by saying something controversial. Met a thousand of those types, it's a personality disorder. They generally only prove that they are dumb as a sock full of hammers (no offense to the socks full of hammers out there), but there are boatloads of people who just say stuff that contradicts what is factual and accepted, in order to prove that they have information above and beyond what most average people think. I'm pretty sure the description that psychologists use to describe these individuals is "Blowhards."
