Well - you are the one who did the whole roll eyes thing and brought it up.

Unless you are now going to deny it?
the "argument" (tame by JW's usual standards) had already started, then yg60m and I just made a point of it being the same old story.

So yes I deny starting anything, just making a point that others wanted to argue.

who wanted to argue anything?

First, the Z06 is in the topic title

second, Posting facts that the Z06 atchieves various lap times, and disagreeing with somebody that the vett has only straight line speed... hence, the lap times. nothing more, no arguing, no looking for arguing.

then for some uknown reason, you come in posting some unrelavent BS making a claim that mentioning a car that is in the topic title and arguing...

i honestly dont know what the point of the post is still, you defend it, but it looks like you are looking for trouble.

and here we go again, as soon as someone mentions Corvette....unbelievable!
in case you can't remember what you posted.

nowhere did i say 'the vette pwns all'
nowhere did i say 'corvette is better'

all i said was saying that the vette does indeed handle well; and has a good engine.

nothing was argumentative about that.

why it is that you continue arguing a pointless 'battle' is beyond me, even that first post....

anyway, im done with this 'argument'

as I said, this wasn't directed at you in particular.....but for some reason you and RC get paranoid and assume it is.

I was just stating the fact that once Corvette is mentioned it usually ends up in an argument (not blaming anyone in particular) - yg60m agreed with me so its obviously not complete BS as you claim.

You guys need to be able to take a simple comment and not get all worked up over it, just chill out.

^^^ yeah but you can tell just by how they are driving that they are favoring one car over the other. like the impreza was going like its life was on the line, yet everyone else is talking and joking and taking their hands off the wheel and shifting slow etc. but the Z06 has some power it just leaves the skyline and lambo on coming off corners.
