Ahhhhh, because a 3rd gen car has a front suspension ADvantage.  I've
driven both, and had 20+ mph roll-on's in 2nd gear with an LT1, and gotten
waxed.  Just to prove it, how could a 3rd gen with a the same 325 foot
pounds as a LT1 have won nationals in '97?

I can guarantee that despite the crowings about SLA suspensions that not
one serious FS driver on this list would think a 4th gen is better than a 3rd.
