[QUOTE="svt1111, post: 11486987, member: 88172"] LOL! I thought the exact same thing! I almost responded to his post too, having owned both the C6Z and now a Boss, but I figured 'why bother' using the logic you described above. lol. Burnin, You described one of the primary reasons the Boss is so much fun as compared to other higher powered/performing cars. It just flat hooks and its amazing how hard the Bosses can pull out of corners where I'd previously be skating all over the place like Bo duke with Rosco P Coltrane hot on his tail. I'm still trying to get used to the fact that I don't have to treat the throttle pedal like a suicide switch anymore. I can just hammer, and hammer and the car loves it and never bites back. I mean, you can steer with the throttle and all, but pretty much only as you see fit, and its extremely forgiving when it does break loose. Fun, fun car. I don't care what the Z06 fanboys think! The other thing about the Z was, even though it had a 7k redline, it really started to nose over around 6,400. I think the high rev range was specifically for track performance where you needed the rpm's to keep from having to change gears all the time corner to corner. With the Boss it seems to continue to pull steadily up to redline, with no real flat spots anywhere. It makes you think that Ford set the rev limiter conservatively. [/QUOTE]
