    ZXxx Getting Stiggy wid it!

    The only thing worse than that crash is the movie behind it! Redline has been in development for years and needless to say it still has turned out looking like a steaming pile of my leftovers!

    Comes out in a few weeks.......I'll still be watching it just to see the exotics on film......

    R u kidding me - Understeer

    What compared to a Formula1 car ??? Where did you see the Enzo race and notice the front end of the car plow or push out wide too much ???

    The Enzo (while not my fav looking ferrari) corners like its on rails. It has the least amount of body roll of any street car out there at the moment. Watch Top gear where a real driver (the Stig) takes it on their home circuit. It's times are in the top 1% of cars and most of the cars that beat it are not legal on the street such as the F1 Renualt they got to drive (I bet the Stig had to have plastic surgery to wipe the smile off his face)

    The Enzo was engineered with the help of Mr Racecar himself, you may know him, Mr M. Schumacher. If that puppies got understeer then I'd hate to think what people say about the way a Zed handles.

    Qualified, maybe not - but consultant on the project he was

    And he also has more engineering knowledge on cars then half the engineers out there. He was instrumental in taking Renaults head engineer with him when he made the move to Ferrari and together they made the team unbeatable.

    Been credited with one of the best tactical minds in racing, including what the car can and cant do. At $40 odd miilion a season, guess he can put his hat in any ring he wants.

    ive had a guy say my zed is like a boat.....but i find that hard to belive as i feel like the car and i feel more control than a newer lexus gs300. worse than that is the soarer which you feel a little scared to take harse turns, not coz it goes out of control but you just dont have the right feel of the car.......

    uz are probably like what???.......but the guys who drive and are picky on it will know...man i should be a reviewer:D

    There was a great write up on Schumacher's contribution to Ferrari in the F1 mag - I forget the issue.
    I'll try to find it and post because it is a good read and I had no idea the extent he was involved in development (and engineering) of the F1 cars until I read it.

    I hate seeing all these pics of wrecked supercars. Makes me hate the peope who buy them to show off and who can't really drive them at all. But I guess I can be thankful for my own supercar, parked in the garage.


    Ever seen this site? (WARNING, MAY CAUSE ANGER AND OR CRYING)
