Also, I am not gonna be racing to 186 mph anytime soon. I live in the US, not Germany. And, lets say I did race to 186 mph and the TT was ahead (Which it wouldn't be), then I might as well race to top speed where I will surpass the Porsche when it tops out at 193 mph while I keep on going to near 200. So, in the end, no matter how you look at it, the Z06 is the faster car..

"But on the racetrack, the gas pedal is the trigger of the gun that's pointed to your head. Squeeze the gas a little too much at corner exit, and you'll find yourself instantly in trouble."

Oh, and wasn't it the C6 Z06 that surpassed the 996 GT2 on Hockenheim course?
1:11.5 for the Z06
1:11.6 for the GT2
Oh, and that was on runflats, too..
Oh well, better wait for the 997 GT2, hopefully that will do better. Oh wait, GM is coming out with the Stingray. Ooops, GM did it again!!...

Who cares if the Vette is quicker, it should be. It has a monster V8 and it's lighter than the flat 6 turbo of the Porschesimple physics
The Vette is quick, however, I was quicker by quite abit

But I know you don't know much about cars, so I forgive you. Afterall, you do drive a C4..

Again, if anyone with a stock 997 TT is up for some runs, I will be more than happy to meet and get a few runs in on tape.
