Tell ya what, we should take ole' Fellow's or O'Connell and put them into a stock C6 and then we'll put each and every one of you "Johnny Dyno Number Asshat's" into a C6 Zo6. Underpowered and heavier they will still pound your *** into mother earth without the grand dyno numbers you all put onto a pedestal.
Chassis > driver = nothing.
Driver > chassis = nothing, except he will most likely kick your *** with less power.
Driver and chassis = winning races.

BTW Jason. The world is a better place to be in with Katech around. Thanks for sharing the new chassis schwag..... some may like it and some may not. But that is the difference in the world we live in. Some are "form over function" and some "function over form"..... but at least from you cat's, we get both.

Sorry to go off topic, but have you ever dyno'd one of your engine packages (any hp #) on a chassis dyno? I'm just curious to know some real world drivetrain loss #'s, since everyone has their own theory on how much power the drivetrain takes up.

BTW - Everytime I see the blue Vette with the matching intake and valve covers, I start thinking bad things. Like looking up the credit limit on all my credit cards!!! Bad Katech!! Bad Katech!!
