panels weight 80 pounds I'll eat my hat.
In defense however, let's be a little realistic here; obviously an Aero is going to smoke an SPG. If an Aero can hold it's own to a Mustang or Corvette, an SPG can't even be remotely compared to an Aero. It's like playing Rugby with a ten-year-old. His original question/comparison of the 900T vs. the SPG was well voiced. What if someone wrote instead of a comparison of an Aero vs. a 92' 9kt (which even very slightly modified WILL smoke an Aero, ask anyone on 9k BB) and someone mentioned that a Porcshe 944 Turbo could take both of them? Wow, could it REALLY?
I agree whole-heartedly with the comment on the SPG looking better, but the SPG I feel was more rated on its suspension than for extra power. As for the wheels weighing extra, that's a very good subject. That is very interesting if they weight that much more. It's too bad that vanity has to have such a downside on this car, but given the proper modifications it will scream like there's no tomorrow.
