I would beg to differ considering I'm probably not even half as good on the drag strip than most regular Jo's that are on this site. The guy who ran that 10.9 probably goes every chance he can and it probably took him a long time to get there. Not discrediting the Famous Z but not every one can run like that. I do believe from factory they are faster then the 13 gt500 just because they have better tires, less weight, better aerodynamics, better gearing etc.... but the average Joe isn't gonna be able to do it. Hell with my upgrades im sure a damn good driver could get 11's no problem but me nope id be happy with low 12's or even mid 12's at most.

DA for Z06 was -1267
DA for GT500 was -1937

I mean **** motortrend claims its a 13 sec car at 109 mph. Where is the 100k worth of performance? Just a dumb investment especially if you truly care about performance. If your interested in getting looks and just to say "yeah i own a lambo", i guess. But other than that i don't see it.

Also, I don't even know why there's so much argument over the '13 GT500 and Z06. There's more than enough videos showing that there is an edge to the GT500. If anything it's impressive how easily the Z06 hangs with the car given the power difference. Besides, the z06 belongs on a road course!

My buddies Vette trapped 125. It was side by side till about 100mph where i started to walk away. Its very easy in comparison to make a vette mph well due to the simple fact that its a lot more efficient from its weight in the first 330'.

And as he mention harder to get the gt500 to go from a dig. With a 100wtq advantage and 140whp both on stock tires is going to need a great driver not to blow the tires off. Not to mention the weight advantage.

also I have seen few others posted on various forums of 13 gt500 going 11.1 or better and 126-129 stock. From different tracks. Seen few with tire only go in the mid 10's@126-129.

Biggest issue with all them still is 1 or 2 do it. Yet no one else can come within a tenth. To me something dont add up.
