It does but i wouldnt think the Z06 would be that slow.. It's not exactly lacking in power now is it? Love the GT2 too but i find it hard to justify 130k+ GBP for a 911! For my money either a 911 C2S or if i could go all out a Turbo!

Shipkiller, If you havent managed to get it to work i've found it on YouTube. Here you go.
I really do admire the Z06's incredible performance for money but i guess Zuffenhausen beat Detroit clean and simple. Of course at double the price it very well should!
Well there wasnt a GT-R here and they used the lighter, faster GT2 not the Turbo. Lovely read thoughrabman5 wrote:Not even close!
Road & Track tested the Z06, 911 turbo and Nissan GT-R....
See the results!

That worked. Thanks.
I have a very hard time believing, even though I saw it, that the Vette did so poorly.. Something was wrong with the Vette.

Well from what i read the Z06 is a hair lighter but has a bit less torque... I dont know he did mention he was surprised himself.

I am surprised too. Wasn't expecting the Z06 to be thrashed so badly!
The Z4M Roaster & Croup are gone!
It's E92 M3 from now on.
