No i didnt catch that race, cos the series isnt screened over here. But thats irrelevant.
Again, race-spec has nothing to do with road-spec, and we are talking road spec here |

It was a 50 min. N/A World Challenge GT race, the firste one this season, I might add. And the Z06 dominated the race and won by with an amazing seven and fifteen seconds. And FYI, the GT3 is a production car. |

wow... i can't believe i threw everyone for that loop...
bhp/ton and power to weight are the same thing... just different versions of it... you can skew the numbers however you want to make an argument go your way... what about tq numbers for the two cars? that's pretty important when coming out of a corner... and we know who has higher tq... the major point was that people are absolutely trashing on cars based on what they've read... i've seen the inside of a zo6, and it's pretty nice... who said they were cheap? journalists. yeah, it's not as nice as a ferrari, but hell, for 1/4 or less of the price... i'll take the mildly less perfect interior... thanks... |

thanks for the link, unfortunately i am unable to read german
oh btw, the reason i say the car isnt road spec (there was obviously some confusion here) is because in america, the gt3 isnt street legal . . . we dont even get them here and the ones that are in service are track cars imported from other countries (i.e. strictly for track use, not road spec) obviously in ur country, things are different oh and btw, why would i even care whether or not u liked me?

Yes in Europe things ARE different- GT3's can be used on the street and people often do, so yes the GT3 is a street-spec car just with develpments from Porsches racing team. and if deakins doesn't like you then nobody likes you :finger:

well . . . whatever governing body held that race at sebring a couple weeks ago, all that is important is that the z06 came out on top . . . chalk another one up for the c5s

i was talking about the race i just watched this weekend.
those vettes aren't zo6's in the alms though. so that kills that one.... however... in regards to the rs6 that audi is racing... that's speed world challenge gt series... from european car... Quote:

As is the 993 (road-going) GT2, which also destroys a zed-oh-poo, as does the 996 GT2, naturally. Nothing against the Corvette, but like i said, if it wants to be taken seriously, Chevy should bring it to the 'ring and see how close it comes to the 8-minute mark. not so close, i dont think |

do u think GM doesn't test at the ring?
just recently they were there testing the new performance CTS model . . . i have no doubt a z06 has already been tested on the ring

Im sure they do, but if the time the Z06 achieved was worth hearing, well, we'd have heard about it. And i dont know what time it lapped in. Do you?
