Well said Blueboost. Weight is a factor in any straightline or road car.

I'll be the fist to say I was disappointed in the HP's of the X, thats why I started a business which involves performance parts for the NSX.

At Sebring, my stock (well, kinda stock 300 hp) NSX pushes Vipers and 'Vettes through the turns. I kill both on braking. I pass them as I approach the corners and turn underneath them. Then they get me on the short straights, but after 100 they better be far enough ahead.

Face it fanboys, the NSX is an overpriced unoriginal looking hunk of metal.
Why supercharge and do suspension work to a ZO6? Because it does not compare to Viper or X. Typical american muscle owner.

By the way, if your car did'nt say Dodge, you would be Rice as well!
SRT - Its a neon with a motor swap.

englaived is like 16 doubt he knows anything about performance considering he wanted to get a spoiler for his FWD turbo car cause he said it actually served a purpose.

Umm, Im 18, downforce helps with stablility at higher speeds.

the Z06 and Viper WILL outperform a NSX in everything, numbers dont lie. Look at the Slalom and Skidpad numbers for the Z06 and the Viper, then turn your fanboy faces over to look at the NSXs.

Low weight does NOT = good handling. Fuck a geo metro weighs little to nothing, doesnt mean it will pull any high numbers in anything. Suspension is more important that the cars curbweight.

Anyways,

Curb weights
SRT-10 Viper - 3380 lbs
Z06 - 3118 lbs
NSX - 3153 lbs

But somehow at 3380, the Viper pulls higher skidpad numbers...
Its skidpad number is 1.4 higher than the Gods Chariot NSX. But somehow its only .6 higher than the "Pig" Z06.

While the unstopable NSX pulls a mighty 65.8 in the Slalom the pure straight light perofmrance Viper pulls a 70.4 and the "out dated" Z06 using leafsprings pulls a 70.3

yes, its magazine racing, yes numbers will vary. But not by the margins that the Z06 and the Viper pull over the NSX.

Get your heads out of your asses, and I am not "another" domestic owner. If I didnt know most domestic owners are Filipino and German... I respect all cars for what they are made for, I never said the NSX wasnt a great performer, I was juts saying its overpriced for its performance.

Seeing how the 350z pulls the same skidpad numbers while running the Slalom at a speed of 67.8, you cant sit here and tell my god damned ass that the NSX isnt overpriced for its performance.
