It's an ls2, it can beat anything....




















In all seriousness, it'll hold it's own against a lot of cars. What type of cars are we competing against, here?

If a C6 driver under-estimates my Subaru Forester for a fraction of a second, they will look like a stupid-*** in my rear-view.

They run low 13's stock around here.

If your 15.0 stock Subaru Forrester out runs one stock, obviously you are not stock. And I'm preeeety sure your top speed is over 60 mph slower. Go ahead and run one from a 70mph roll.

It's not like a Corvette auto with 50/50 weight bias is hard to launch.

The list of low 13 or quicker stock car is actually a fairly short list.

The best I have seen from an A4 c6 is a low low 13.

That isn't going to cut against a well driven 03 cobra. I went 12.6 @ 113 and it was dead stock right down to the filter and it only had 800 miles on it. I only made three passes with it in stock trim but I feel that I could have worked it down into the 12.40's with some more seat time.

Im not bashing the Vette because I have sold the Cobra to get a Vette. Im just saying that I dont think the a4 vette is faster than the Cobra.

A C6 is definitely faster than low 13's, unless a complete newbie is driving?

out of this list id say everything except the z06 and an exceptionally well driven 03 cobra. unless the stock c6 auto cuts power down like the gto's does then it might have trouble with a mustang gt

i saw a dyno comparison of a c6 vs a zo6 and the c6 had 5 more hp and 7 lb/ft of torque! i think the c6 will stay right with a zo6 if not pass it. give each car the same driver and see what happens...
