Obviously, there are many among us that have gone much faster as we aquired seat time....a very key component when drag racing a Z06 as the clutch hates drag race launches.
I suspect the 2013 GT500 vs C6 Z06 matchups are going to be very close.....the new GT500 is a brute of a car. But make no bones about it......with "only" 505 HP a C6 Z06 is still a VERY formadable opponent, is cheaper than either the ZR1 of GTR (in base 1LZ mode), and I can't wait for my first heads up matchup with a new GT500 at the strip. |
The z06 is indeed a formidable opponent. I haven't driven a z06 that didn't have the z07 package so I'm wondering how do the times compared between the 1lz and 3lz with the z07 package.
And you have to take into the account even though the z06 has less hp it weighs like 600 pounds less. So for the shelby too blow past everything and get to z06/z07 levels is just amazing given how the z07 is now I think 110k or so?
