[TPR] Ford to build a mid-engine c8 killer?

[David Carpenter]

It'd be HARD for me to me to choose from a Vette. (You know I had a bunch)  Not often ya actually get to drive fast, & it does it well!!
MOST often driving you just relax & feel comfy, & it does that for me in spades!!

For ME....ride fits....mpg is awesome....
Until MPG doesn't matter!!!!
Then it hits like a Ton of Bricks....& corners with the best!!!!
All NOT the very best......but it's 1/3 the price of what's ahead of it!!
For ME a dozen times when buying & owning,
It worked!!!!

Regular Vettes corner great!!
Add the Z51 track package (cheap), they corner Better!!
Z06 package: corners Spectacular!!!
RT & I nearly crashed first couple corners in my Z06!!  Using notes outta M&M car.  (BBORR)  RIPPED into first corner following those notes & realized for very first time:
M&M car, on 12" NASCAR race slicks could EASILY handle corners 25+ mph faster than Z06!!!!
I was TOO fast..(160+ ) ....in middle of corner.....to have the 'Learning Curve' be sooo steep!!!

(OH Sheeeet moment....no matter what you drive)
But I'm still writing crap.....so C5 Z06 got us thru just fine!!!!
Wish I had 'Depends' on the Right Seat!!!
& Bowtie is responsible for YOU reading my rants today!!!

Have a Safe & Wonderful time in Ely you Lucky stiffs!!!  Raise a toast to me & all the absent friends!!!
I miss being there with ya!!!
