> well i know they arent all that different of a platform, but a '99 z28 will be a stiffer setup and also has wider rims/tires, so how can it not handle better? plus arent the 4th gens alittle wider, so that would probly add to stability? and then when you figure in the aftermarket, i’d take a 4th gen over a 3rd gen in a second. ive driven a few 3rd gen (though not on a track) and i never though it felt better than any 4th gen ive driven (maybe its because they were only SS’s and WS6s, i dunno)

Weight and available front camber in stock form.

Also remember, that the 3rd gens that you drove were probably 10 years older than the 4th gens. Bushings, shocks, springs and body structure all get tired with age.

I am talking stock and my 4th gen road race car is still a PIG. Interesting enough, I was offered a 3rd gen road race car today for next-to-nothing but I have to go to St. Louis to pick up. I am seriously considering it…
