What do you expect from a guy who drives a Miata and claims to own MY Roadmonster

Like I said, talk to VFN, they seem to be responsive to requests for new products.

Far as the b-body vs. w-body thing. I know I raced a 2004 blower 3.8 Impala SS with my 180K mile 95 Roady wagon, was a VERY close race but I won with a 15.5 at 88mph to his 15.6 at I think 89mph. Given he had a MASSIVE weight advantage and only 20hp less HP you would have thought he would have won. In case you are skeptical about my use of the term MASSIVE to describe the weight difference, look it up, roughly a 1000lbs base curb weight difference between those two cars:eek:.

I would hope the newer V8 models are a bit better though.

I am not a w-body hater either, my wife's 2003 3.4L car has been GREAT to us, wonderful fuel economy, VERY VERY few repairs. Very happy with it, but I will take my RWD dinosaurs for my daily driver.

Hey it could be a lot worse than a Miata... Before I got my 07 I drove a 1995 Camry... and I showed off allll four of those cylinders every time I had the opportunity

Either the d-bag didnt know how to drive, or it wasnt a blower car, I ran 15.315 @9xmph (too lazy to look for the slip) N/A... granted I had cammed it and FWI/no back or pass seat/no jack/spare, 1/4tank etc...

MOST L67 cars will run sub 15 stock, most LS4 will run lo14-hi13s stock (depending on temp/alt/track/driver/stc) my PB on the old setup was 13.5@105 w/a slipping trnas and my TC installed 1 keyway retarded (opps), should be very interesting this year.... that and my buddy's factory freak (15.1 @98mph STOCK GPGT) now has my old setup in it....

Is a slow track and was a blower car, in complete driving trim, nothing taken out, same as my wagon.

This was at WIR and for some reason everyone seems to agree GLD is 2-3tenths faster, similar elevation 150 miles apart.
