ACP is coming out with a widebody kit for the C5 that resembles the C6 Z06 and the prelim pics I saw are killer. Email Kerry at ACI for pics.

Doesn't have the air flow hood.No one pays much attention to the rest. Paint the rear black and put a number on it 95% of those who see it will be fooled!

havent you played JUICED for the XBox?

the lancer is faster than the vette because it has 4WD

and can be modded to be fast enough

A few things.. the American lancer is a piece of crap. Now an EVO is a whole 'nother animal. An Evo 8 is pretty sweet but it's not a Corvette.. not by a long shot.

Basing what you know about which cars are faster off of a crappy racing game (that almost didn't get released btw) called "Juiced" (really sounds like they know what they're talking about with that title) is so retarded, my head hurts from reading it.

sorry..
i dont know what its called
the words that come to mind are=
mitsubishi, lancer, evo, rally, AWD, I4, turbo, competitor to WRX, and RED

that one..

and granted, the corvette is alot better on the FREEWAY
and the TRACK
and the DYNO

but he was talking about stoplight to stoplight.
the AWD launch, i guess.

any way a vette can launch like the mitsu can on the STREET?

and yeah.. juiced isnt as good as forza or even rallysport challenge 2
