So the superior car in every way wins yet again without needing a form of forced induction? No surprise there.

But it has less seats. That's like adding 2 turbos.

Ah **** you're right. I forgot about the 2000+ hp 2 seat mod. If the GT500 removed the back seats it would have won for sure.

No nitrous, nothing to see here. Sounds like you're describing a GT100 to me.

Oh wow, would you look at that. Even the playing field both with blowers and Vette still wins. That's weird.

For my first evening cocktail, I'll think I'll have a splash of whiskey in a glass of Nate's tears.

The FGT is more of a competitor for the. C6Z
That's always the story until it's a GM car doing it, then it's the norm. I've heard those rumors too and nothing was ever proven, the car didn't have a pulley swap or nitrous. Funny thing, I can't find a single magazine that was allowed to run performance tests on the ZR1, they all had to parrot the GM specs.

As for those hero runs, they were in negative DA, makes a huge difference in a blown car.
