Hey Rich...

Well ummm... no offense intended here, but I think the Z28 and 5.0
were humoring you.  My 4kCSQ has the 2.2 I-5 with only 94k on the
clock, and I'm sure it is slightly lighter than a 5000.  If I were
to race a new Z28 or 5.0, I know for a fact that I'd get my a$$
kicked and then some!  ;)  My 86 Merkur XR4ti (auto) would kick
the living shinola outta my 4kCSQ... hands down.  

Now, if we were talking about the S4 vs a 5.0, then I could say
otherwise (been there, done that), but a new Z28 stick would
probably also take the S4... never done that.   For some reason,
the S4 seems to attract older farmer dudes in big hopped up
pickups!  I dunno why, but I've had 3 challenge me in the last two
days!!  BTW, they all lost.  ;)


Later,
