C6 Corvette

[Danglerb]

One of my favorite things to do is to put my foot to the floor and run a car through the gears.

US 83 on a 6% uphill grade is good for 9 seconds of fun.
Euro 85 on a 6% uphill grade is good for 6 seconds of fun, with bonus scary factor at end.

*** Note shifting not so much fun since you need to lift in a 928, so shift time not included in fun time.

I find it interesting so few people know anything about the 928..I have a friend that has a C5 Z06 corvette and he was admiring my S4, asking about it. When I told him it was a V8 with rear transaxle layout he gasped and said" you mean it is like the corvette?". "No" I stated "the corvette is like the 928"....I dont think he got it...but he's young:P
For the record that vette is super fast, modified to about 450 RWHP..nice car but I live in kentucky and there is a corvette at every stoplight(they are made here for those that don't know)...beautiful but just way too common.

One of the frequent things I hear about the 928 is "That is the Risky Business car". Yes, many Corvettes, all over. They probably make more Vettes in one year than the entire production of 928's. That Z06 I was in was very fast @ 650 HP.

Hmm I thought this was a power train swap thread. Boo corvettes, unless you stuff that ls7 under the hood of a shark Lols
