The
warmup lap? LOL! I didn't know that. He also should have been chewed a new one for getting out of the car on a hot track.

The C5 and C6 'Vettes seem to hang in there, but I think they are a whole different animal than the new pony cars. The latter being built to a price rather than a purpose, if you will. I would be interested, too, to hear from someone who has tracked one for a few years. It's just that I have yet to meet that guy.

I agree--that was the main reason for my post. I just can't seem to warm up to Vettes, though. The interiors just feel like cheap junk to me, and I need a back seat for my DD, small though they are in the Mustang.
