Default Re: Update: Living with the V8 Crossfire

Can't say that result suprised me, people are to caught up thinking that anything V8 is super fast, in reality thats not the case.

The R171 SLK55 is an absloute beast, it has simular specs to a Crossfire in terms of size and weight (abit heavier then ours, I think), but far more advance in terms of LSD diff, 7 speed tranny, and not to mention a monster engine. they are a mid 12 second car, stock.

I'll go out on a limb and say Lantana's car would be a mid 13 second car at best in stock form. However as stated the potential is massive so hopefully we'll see mid 10 second car after a few turbos are strapped on
