thanks guys for all the input

97blkz, im not talkin about you, im talkin about my other friend who also has a 97 black z28.

one more question???? so weight is not really a factor in auto-x?

i thought weight would be more of a factor in this than drag.

also, lets say we both have the same HP/weight ratio. an analogy would be, lets say my car is a f150 pickup and his car is a school bus. even though he has more HP, im going to beat the school bus on an auto-cross track because of less curb weight, less turning radius, ect.

it just seems to me like theres no way a school bus could take a turn as fast as the truck. just like theres no way a heavy ass camaro is going to be able to take a turn a quick as a CRX, hell i can pick up the back of the car by myself.

the only true way to tell is the track, and my friend takes this shit so seriously that he's pissed at me for asking you guys if his car is good at autocross. he's the type of person that if i ever beat him, he would never talk to me again. too much pride to ever admit he may be wrong.
