I love the sound of a V8 just as much as a v12 and love the sound of our little V6.
Anytime a troll comes to a site to just stir the pot, you deserve the flaming you get.

There isn't ECU limitation, only aero, gearing, and HP are limitation for C5 & C5 Z06 and C6 &C6 Z06.

And yes, I agree, but we are talking about being safe or designed to go 200mph. I surely feel safer in the vette than I would in the 350z doing 170+.

A passenger of that size makes a massive difference, stop or roll.
That and If the 350z would brake boost liek he should have. The 350z shoudl have lost all drivers being = in perfectly even conditions. heavier car, little less power. but it wouldnt have been that bad.

The brake boosting is not something I was familiar with at the time, but I've been innundated with PM's since the race suggesting I do so in the future... learn something new everyday.

I'm hoping that in 3 years when the resale value of the Z06 falls flat that I can buy one too, lol.

They are just to good and too rare to be obtainable yet. That'll change though.

Although it does get very complex too, to a point where the general rule is not always true. Guys really really maxing out a turbo setup at low elevation will lose about as much as an equal NA car by going up in altatude. The turbo simply cant compensate since its already doing all it can. I doubt thats the case on the Z, but ya never know....

The new z07 is 196 I think I have read. 220 maybe different, but 200mph isn't out of the question. Like I said, 190 in that 350z, I just can't imagine, but than again, I don't own one either. I've been in quite a few vettes. Even the C5 feels safe at 170mph.
What's the 350z top speed governed too. I know the old 300zx was 155.
Now I wouldn't argue you at all if I was trying to take my formula to those speeds. 160 is stable, but I don't know if I would push it past that.
