C6Z vs KBGT500

I believe the owner of the Z is a member on here. Either way, I don't think its a repost.

pretty neck and neck... but up top it the z06 was easily starting to pull... just shows how much more rwhp the gt500 needs to help its donkey *** keeping up with the z06...

ok let's test some equal rwhp numbers... '08 ZR1 vs. '08 GT500 then there will be nothing for them to speak about but how the hand of GOD touched GM

What kind of numbers are they talking about for the 08 GT500. not that it really matters with the aerodynamics of a brick

Are they suppose to UP the HP numbers for the '08 GT500??

Even if so, this GT500 still had a KB 2.2. It's no big surprise, but that is a big difference in HP #s. Not bad at all for the Z!

There's also the fact that the GT500 is a brick (I agree), but is geared horribly for an extemely heavy car which kills it #'s. They gave it 3.73s on the GT500-KR, which would help it out. I would still take a C6 Z06 anyday of the week though.

with that weight difference it would be only 90 -100 rwhp to be even, 160 is advantage. But the KB makes it more heavy and his himself and himself are heavier
