'top gears' single sided review of vette

[wipeout]

HI,

right click save target as... (44megs)

I found this video on the internet. It's a british tv show and they do a review of the vette. You gotta watch it to see what im talking about.

They keep bringing up the fact that the vette has a leaf spring suspension. I alsways thought that was a good thing. Then they have some guy drive it around a race track. It doesnt even look like the guy know's how to drive.

Oh yeah and they drag race it against a bunch of 120,000 dollar cars. The vette come up in third. Well I think if you invested 120,000 in a vette it would come up in first also.

Dont know check it out for yourself. I like pretty much any kind of car (yes even stangs) but I hate people that have tv shows and do stupid reviews of automobiles like this.

Oh yeah and the vette was just below the ferrari evo for lap time.

That was pretty funny....I didnt like it any more than any other Vette person would though.....But , I do agree with the leaf spring setup. It is inferior to a well tuned truly independent setup. Those who have went to coilovers can confirm that. ...

They sure know an awful lot about cars for guys that can't drive worth a s**t. It would have been a lot faster if they had kept it on the track. I bet that little pebble hurt their tiny spineless behinds.

it's better how though, better at cornering, high speed stability, or comfort. If you gonna say comfort your driving the wrong type of car I think. It's a racing car it's not supposed to be comfortable.

But that's just my opinion... lolololololol

"Great" Britain is a small backward socialist nation with, now get this, royalty. Their opinions are worthless. They sold out their freedoms several generations ago after we bought them back with the blood of the 8th Air Force. Remember Dresden? That's the British way. They liked flying in the dark and taking revenge at our expense.
