Ya i dont think so lol this porsche handles like a dream for sure but my vettes does as well. My current vette has all poly bushings and an after market suspension. It handles great.

To the sticky tires in the other post. Had to, with the stock 300hp it would light em up. ive added about 150hp to it with 3:54 gears and a stall. I needed to get some of that to the ground
Again, takes no more than a mildly setup Miata or Civic to over take any typical Corvette. I've owned personally 9 built DSMs and during my rein of terror running Southwest Speed back in the day have built or oversaw the builds of many, and not one vette myself nor any of the group I would frequently talk to would compete, quick in straights against any Low HP car but road hogs in corners. My last DSM, when I was racing it was rolling on complete built suspension, 426awhp/393awtq quick spooling TD06 20g, etc... I'd attend as many events as I could and never placed behind a single vette.

In fact I hardly ever see Vettes at the track. Mustangs, Miata, Hondas, couple Porsche, various other cars but usually only 1 or 2 Vettes per event and always in my way. And easily lapped [emoji6]
