There isn't a snowballs chance in hell a properly driven GT3 will keep up with a properly driven Murci. I have driven both.

 

Finally someone who knows what they are talking about!

Im eager to run a stock C6 in my Murci. I think it will be very close, but I may too have to give the edge to the C6. Hopefully not.

 

Thanks for the clarification. So, the TT had the edge even from the roll.

Z06 puts more power, is lighter, and has just as good of gears if not better than the 996 TT.

Again, not taking away from the kill because anything can happen on the street (I even have a vid of me beating an SRT-10 from a roll in my slow, stock, 2001 Z06) but given equal drivers, the C6 Z06 will beat a 490 bhp 996 TT.

But then again, how many times do you run into two equal drivers on the street? And I understand that.

 

Ya, definitely keep us updated if you run into one (And please, make sure the driver knows what he is doing before you race so we can see a realistic outcome)..

 

I have a video (me driving) of my TT with exhaust and heavy 19" HREs vs a GT3 with intake and stock GT3 wheels. We both had one passenger. I pulled a few cars each time (3 races) from rolling starts of 30,40, and 55mph. I even let him take the jump on the first race, but I pulled back, caught him, and then began to pass him.

I can show you the video if you would like...

 

You can show whatever you like. I am speaking from my personal experience, on the road and the track......And a stock TT won't our run my 3,....

Its not a big deal. Straight line at the end of the day is a useless , there are mustangs that will out run us all in a straight line.


Now on the track, a stock TT hasn't a prayer

 

If so, I hope you don't run across Silver's car. You might get your feelings hurt

 

A stock TT, on a track with turns, shouldn't be able to keep up with a stock GT3. The GT3 was built specifically for the track while the TT was made for both track and city. The GT3s suspension, weight, etc, were all geared for the track. I don't believe that anybody would argue with you on this point.

 

Thats simply NOT true. I've personally been in a GT3 while it was running a Gallardo....several highway rolls all the same result...GT3 ahead by a slight but convincing margin. (1-to-2 car lenghts) "On paper" i guess the Gallardo "should" be quicker but how many times have we seen *porsches* FASTER than their claimed numbers (very often) and how many times have we seen italian cars SLOWER than their claim numbers (very often) ...which isn't a surprise at all when comparing an engineering drivin' company vs. one thats drivin' by passion...

No offense Allen, but Gallardo's aren't all that (performance wise)...one night we had a guy here in D.C. with a black one with dealer plates who was cool enough to do many runs against us in a GT3, a BPU TT Supra, and a C5 Z06 vette....ALL of us beat the lambo* ALL OF US. Its was pretty pathetic considering the $160+K price tag if you ask me. The driver of the lambo was a car guy with many hot numbers too (before you go spoutin' off that he couldn't drive, lol), he personally owned a 9-sec grand national and knows how to "drag race."

...I will say this though, it WAS a gorgeous car. Real pretty to look at. Much better looking than the over-done "martian space shuttle" styling of a Murcialago. I think Lambo really went downhill with regards to their flagships styling, being their #2 looks way better now. Personally, I thought the Diablo 6.0 looks better than them all. I don't know, was never about cars that looked like they're out of an arcaid game or that a 12 year old designed them.

 

Hey Rolo.Tell John before he takes on the vette again I'll remap his ECU again so he won't be able to run even again.

Guys all I'm saying is he could not get away from me period. These were very unregulated runs but showed surprisingly similar acceleration traights. I do have an exhaust which can't add too much but with bmc filter, .9 boost,dv's, i figure close to 500. I do think alot of it has to do with how the "new" power matches up with the stock gearing so well. It pulls it HARD. I never said the Z06 got whipped that was ROLO. LOL I was glad to hang and hang I did. It is not easy to launch a z06 at a busy intersection without drawing attention so yes we rolled on it but then it was all out through third gear of both cars. Thats moving in a tip. My personal opinion is that a good driver in the z06 can put down a 11.8 or so 1/4 mi. The 0-6- however of 3.? won't be so easy. His car is fast but I ma finding out that mine measures against most OK for a street car. 520 kit plus exhaust maybe later for 530-540? I bet this combo would go 11.8 ish. I hope to run what I have now at the Jackson dragstrip in late February. There is a private event where you can run all you want. It cost a bit more but the environment is much less "grudge racing" if you will. Anbody want to guess what my 480 PSI and EP2 quietcan do in the 1/4 mi. I may be dissapointed but I am hoping for 12.0 or better.

 

"As for the Lambo race once again the owner of the Murci (Egear car) was also at Starbucks but with his new Z06 and my friend who has the GT3 left him by 5 car lenghts my friend.."

Allan you cant read read the post the guy who had the Z06 also is the owner of the same Murci we raced in the GT3

 

Jarod been in both driven both and done the race the Murci is slower off the line then the GT3...

 

Allan a stock C6 may be ok for the Murci but the Z06 will have you for lunch...we did that race also...however on the upper end above 150 the Z06 does not pull as hard and the Lambo passed us..Trust me Francis with the GT2 on this board was in the Lambo and my frined Royaltouchtt (6 speed member) was driving his new Z06..

All my stories are fact and there are members here that know all parties involved..

 

If it helps, I ran a 12.2 with just exhaust plus heavy, 19" wheels on a 88' day (stock boost). You should easily (if you can drive) be able to get into the high 11s with your mods. On a cooler day, I believe that I could have hit 12.0 flat, if not 11.9x's...
