Poll: What would you rather have?

[greasy]

You are looking to purchase a new sports car and you have 2 options. You can pick Car A with exceptional acceleration/speed and great handling or you can pick Car B with exceptional handling and great accleration/speed. The disparity in ratings between acceleration/speed and handling amongst both cars are the same. If we are to rate the cars out of a total of 10 the following would apply:

Car A

Acceleration/Speed: 9.5

Handling: 8

Car B

Acceleration/Speed: 8

Handling: 9.5


So assuming the brand and look of each cars are equally appealing, which one do you pick?

I would take the GT500 over the ZL1.

 

[Lord Tin Foilhat]

Either...then mod the shit out of it and make it 11/11

 

[TonzKnock-G]

In the real world you have to turn.

But what if he lives his life 1/4 mile at a time?

I'm sure a car that rates a 8/10 on handling is more than capable of making it around a corner.

Still have to get back to the start of the 1/4 mile some how.

Acceleration>handling

After owning a car that can actually turn. Id rather have a better handling car that isnt quite as fast. Its pretty easy to make a car go faster in a straight line, you want that same car to handle better it isnt going to be as easy or as cheap. Gotta also remember weight distribution that some cars are designed around. You cant buy mods to fix that.

Where is option 3? Buy a used C6Z for even less money and wack both of those cars in every category.

Good point.... Real race cars don't have reverse

Reverse.

Bullshit. I've seen John Force's funny car back up on its own.

Power. Slide.

Power. Slide.

You'd rather have a 3800, which isn't fast in a straight line or good around a corner. Your opinion has no weight in this argument.

id rather have my indyjeep contraption with an old school martin draw through turbo setup on it

Another slow car that can't handle. So strange coming from a guy that worked on modified porsches, cars that go fast straight and handle like a dream. I'll never understand you.

 

[Gav'sPurpleZ]

too many variables....but i choose speed in this particular questionaire

 

[Turbocharged400sbc]

its not a car, its a hillbilly mix between a 75 cj5 jeep and a single seat indycar

which makes it cooler

 

[wolfe]

Where's the as long as it isn't a 3800 option?

[C.Evans]

I'd drive it.

You can mod the ZL1 to easily beat the GT in a straight line, but can you make the GT500 beat the ZL1 in handling? I think not.

I'm sure a car that rates a 8/10 on handling is more than capable of making it around a corner.

True but out of the box I'll take the better handling.

A lot easier to get go fast parts than go handling parts. My simplistic thoughts.
