An FRC has the Z51 package and is about 100 lbs lighter than a reg. coupe. They are also really rare. Also they look cool.

The car just feels shorter and more nimble than an Fbody...I wouldn't go as far to say that it handles "good", but it is better than what I drive...

My best 60' so far is a 1.92, with the old 5.3 and stock converter.
