Re: C6 Z06 vs GT2 - Last Tuesday

Results were mixed, really looked like whoever got the jump won. The Z06 pulled early but the GT2 seemed to gain at the end. I would say pretty close to a dead heat.
Maybe Watt and Carl can comment what they saw from the car.

I have yet to weigh my car.

When spring comes there'll be plenty of new Z06s to mess around with on the track. Stay tune for vids.
