(1)  Thats because they are in different classes.

(2)  The 993GT2's, 996GT3's, and 996Turbo's that race in ALMS are rear engine designs, not mid engine.

I'm buyin my z06 in '05.  I have a chipped '86 that spins 345 HP at the rear... just added 175 shot of NOS from Summit(haven't used it yet).  Also have 1800 Watts in it.. this is my third and by far favorite 'vette... will miss it when I sell it.

Haven't lost a single race to any of those jap crap/Euro cars, most of those clowns have no idea how to drive anyway.

Got stomped on by  '68 camaro.... he was NOS'd.. I'll be lookin for him now.   :)

That one is a Lamborghini Countach (1988).

Has been the fastest car in commerce until the Ferrari F40 enter in the market (and then the others).

320 Kmh Effective.

12 cylinders 5kcc.... a music... a F1 engine in a jet chassis.

The air intake and other profiles are NACA profiles.

All in aluminium (good for recycling ;) ).

Hand made.

Ah, the 147 :)

3.2 liter - 250 bhp - 246 Km/h

A coworker have the TDI SW version, did'nt tested yet, but he told me that at 200 Km/h (amaizing for a diesel) keeps a very good stability.

A lot of electronic, for sure, but the chassis must be good anyway, electronics cant do miracles ;)

A good choise, i think, and if GE buy the Fiat (Alfa is in Fiat group), there will be an improvement in price, over the ocean.

Pazzuoli? Is that near Napoli?
I cruise to Italy at least 2 a year, in the area of Grossetto, Scarlino to be exact.

Great Country!
