Just curious how some of the older stock/race f-bodies vettes out there compare to newer cars. I know there are lots of factors that would offset times but for shits and giggles....
I took a few from motortrends site.. 2010 Dodge Viper ACR - 1:33.92 2009 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 - 1:35.83 2009 Nissan GT-R - 1:40.45 2008 BMW M3 - 1:42.96 2010 Ford Shelby GT500 - 1:44.32 2010 Chevrolet Camaro SS - 1:45.72 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer Evo X MR - 1:47.7... 2008 Chevrolet Cobalt SS - 1:47.75 2009 Mazda RX-8 - 1:50.42 2006 Honda Civic Si - 1:54.99 Source |

I guess I was wrong. What kind of times are you guys with street legal 4th gens getting? This post has been edited by Steve91T: Jul 18 2011, 10:51 PM |
