Below you will see a link to a post that was supposed to be discussing the next Camaro. However, I seem to be butting heads with the guy named IZ28 that seems hellbent on proving the IROC-Z is a better handling car than any 4th gen ever made.

I find this very hard to believe considering the improvements in the 4th gen front suspension plus the availablility of 17" tires later on. He's quoting imaginary kid pad numbers like they are gospel.

If anybody is interested, I could use some fact-based assistance. He claims 3rd gens still dominate F-stock to this day...I kinda find this hard to believe.

Not that I am anti-thirdgen, I've owned two of them, including an IROC, so don't take my opposition to this guy the wrong way. I just don't agree with his "facts."

Kevin, thanks for the excellent post. Seems that discussion really took on a new life after I went to bed.

I wasn't necessarily trying to "win" the argument by proving the guy wrong, just to get him to admit that what he thinks is fact is really just personal preference and opinion supported by anecdotal evidence, a few abberrant skidpad tests, and personal feel on the street.

He's now backed down from the fact claim and now just states its his opinion, which is all I really wanted in the first place. I think its far from an open and shut case, that's all.
