The C4 Corvettes have consistently proven to be faster in autocross than C5s. Speculation that the new Z06 will dominate is yet to be proved. What looks good on paper, from factory hype and enthusias

I'm not so sure about this comment. I've driven both cars, and at least in SS trim, the new 2000 model C5 hardtop seems to me to be a VERY good car to have for the class! Ron Bauer Y2K S2K

Ron, is this from how the car feels or from some objective testing? The reason I ask is that the C5 Corvette is very impressive from a feeling perspective. It is designed to be the "Lexus" of sports

I expect the Mollekers to do very well in their C5 at Nationals. Their PAXed times are very competitive with the best drivers in the NW Region including the top SS RX7TT driver, Mike Lillejord. Heck,

I think the reason C4s have been faster than C5s is is mainly due to the lack of development time on the C5s. Remember, a non-Z51, automatic C5 with stock shocks trophied at Nationals last year and w

I don't know about that. As fast, maybe. Most of the better drivers are still in C4s and RX-7s, because those are the cars they already have. But by all means send your letter in to have the two cla

Myself, I take the above with a grain of salt. Miatas are, at best, difficult to drive in the wet. At worst, they are scary; I almost spun mine on an on-ramp during a light rain. Not to impugn Mr. Mo

We are getting away from the point, which should be Best of Breed. If the C4 (which has consitently beaten the C5's) is a Vette, then it should stay in SS. Look at the reclassed AS vette's... no one

It's true these cars can go fast in 1st, but also keep in mind that the LT4's and the ZR1's can't turn compared to the L98 cars (at least in stock form) This is why the BSP combo to have is an early
