How can you compare a tire upgrade to a horsepower upgrade? You aren't making any sense.

Tires are consumables. Test vehicles as stock, yes....but test them with the same damn tires so we can really see what the chassis can do. Most folks that care about track times are going to upgrade their tires the first chance they get. Hell, motortrend has already shown the willingness to upgrade tires when they compared the ecoboost mustang and camaro to level the playing field. Why not do this with ALL comparisons.

Before you start spewing more hate, keep in mind this would likely be advantageous for the Camaro when comparing it against the GT350. I really don't care.
Listen this is the reason I don't like modding is it muddies the waters. Is this mod ok, and this mod isn't, who decides. Keeping the vehicle truely stock takes away all of this arguement.

If you want to mod that is fine but understand the vehicle is modded and any arguement of it being stock is out the window. You are now driving a modded vehicle. I remember running my 392 at VMP and the 5.0 guys coming around with tunes, CAI, and DRs claiming the vehicle was stock
