Well, then why dont we all just go get some crappy mustang and put some 
NOS on it.  That way we could beat both of them.  It seems to me Scott 
that you are ignoring my point.  HANDLING!!!!!!  If you compare .86-.89 g 
to .95-.99g that is not just a small difference.  If you have a 
discrepancy of over 1.5 miles per hour in the slalom, that is not a small 
difference.  

Puhleeze, lets stop talking about acceleration, if i were so preoccupied 
with acceleration, i would be driving a pony car....
