I heard of adjustable suspension, just not for a drag car, and 18's is what he said I do believe.

most drag car's have adjustable suspension...it take some suspension tuning to keep those things goin straight, and the wheels down

Ah it doesn't matter. I'd put a Corvette against a M3 in handling. Sure, its got a shitty interior, but people don't buy Corvettes for the wood trim. American cars can handle. Your a dumbass if you don't believe so.

Um, wtf are you talking about? I don't remember a M3 being a family car. I also don't remember a Corvette weighing 2000lbs. Both of them are stupid heavy. I thought you said American cars don't handle?
