AND it's over 3800 lbs. I'm thinking something fishy was going on when it went around the Ring the first time.

DSG is fine with me. Driving a stick shift is fun and all but you can't shift faster then those DSG's

In theory, yes. But often once SMT's makes it to production, that doesn't always happen.

I do think they are good systems though....just need less big brother written into them.

Holy cow that car's a fatty. I will probably be a wonderful daily driver and a fast track car that is well insulated, but compared to a Z06 or Viper I believe it will be lacking in the intuitive connection department. I'll just wait till one wrecks and then make it into a track car.

I never believed on that "claimed" ring time one bit so I never reported it on my blog, unlike some other larger auto news sites spreading it as if it is a fact......

Thanks for visiting, by the way.
