Its obvious that your car would rape the new Z06 in any type of acceleration contest. Its not even the same ballpark. Your GT2 would easily clear 135 MPH traps at Sea Level. It is also not accurate for RocketW19 to think that the run by RANGER is what typically signifies what most C6 Z06's can do. RANGER has over 1000 passes at the dragstrip iirc, coupled with his drag skills, and running that that MD strip/track under those ideal conditions = Times and Traps most Z06's will never see. Period

PS. that would be like saying stock E46 M3's are 12.4 second cars stock, because Lee Mathews made a 12.4@110+ pass on his stock motor M3, but in reality, we all know stock M3's are lo 13 second@104-105 cars.

I saw that run that Ranger made, BTW...10.9 is not 10.7. my 60' on that run was 1.8, while his was much lower and I STILL outran him. So I guess none of the guys could drive, huh? My buddy with the modded Z switched cars with me and we ran with the same result. Dude, the Z is a cool car but come on


Let me know when you're ready to run your Z06 against me so you can personally get a taste of harsh reality.

the tt has all that torque down low that i love.

My orginal point was that I would love to see videos of the Vette gettting walked by modded 996 turbos. For all the banter, every f-en video I see of the Vette it is doing the walking, with all due respect Renn Tech. Before the Z06 came out there were always post about dyno horse power not being the same as real world horse power. Now it seems that no matter what a turbo dynos, there is no video of it walking a Vette.
