Nope, definitely not a drivers race. One car traps under 120mph stock, the other about 127mph.

z06's dont trap on average 127. the majority are around 122-124 give or take. and since this race looks like it started from a roll i wonder what type of speed these two cars pick up in the final 1/8 on average.

Any good driver should see 124-125 mph traps in a C6 Z. REALLY good drivers will see 126+ bone-stock but those numbers are much more rare. 122 traps in good air is just plain weak IMO.

A '10 GT500 will have a hard enough time with a C6 LS3.

Like others said; something is wrong here..should be an easy win for the Z06, not a close race.
