His car was not set up, no LSD on worn MPSC and he was very little bit slower then me. He also came down to Sebring and gave us all a good chase.
If you are talking about the gold vette how about a 1.31xx

Here is a video from the gold Corvette

Not sure how you define "best driven", but pretty sure that's almost 10 sec/lap faster than the 28 car.

Is that a Z06 or a ZR1? If a ZR1 then its competition is a GT2 or GT2 RS.

07 Z06 Riiiight, just Like a CUP R is a GT3.
It might be better driven than the Porsche, who knows but that car is a race car..

yeah. I seems he checked the GM spec sheet for the stainless hood pins, equal length headers, cat-delete and 3 inch straight exhaust too.

sounds like another Z06 I've chased around for years. apparently they all do start as Z06's but then in the spring the cocoons open up and they hatch into fire breathing monsters. A.K.A POPP-mobiles.

enjoy

...
The C6/Z06 platform makes a great sports car. Easily upgradeable and a great track performer. In between P-cars I had a C6 for 10 months and it was a great performer, but... I came back to the P-car fold... There's something magic about a short wheelbase, all-in-the-rear 911.

Guys

Take it easy, of course it's a racecar. But it "sounds like a race car"? Trust me, the exhaust is NOT what makes that car fast.

However, anything with a cage is just pretending to be a street car, IMO.

Stock Z06's are faaaast. I'd say well driven on Hoosiers unbeatable by GT3.

This one was very far from stock, full race car I thought.
I passed this one on the warmup lap and left him a good distance while he warmed up his slicks. Once warm I saw him coming and coming fast he did

I know I'll get flamed on a Porsche forum for this...BUT....if I could physically drive a manual car a Z06 Vette with after market brakes would sure be tempting!

I wonder if Corvette is working on anything like PDK?

So I don't get flamed, I wish I could afford a Pcar and I have driven them and like them a lot. We are going to be racing at Sebring in May with PBOC and will have a C6 z06 there along with our race car, so look me up if you want to take a couple of laps in it. The car has stoptech on all 4 corners headers and a tune and puts down 489 to the ground on 93. Has spherical bushings bilstien coilovers on r6 hoosiers. The car does 1:36.xx at Barbers . Pm me so I know who to look for if you are going.
