I agree based on this experience I mean you're talking about at least 400 pounds advantage for the Z plus at least 100 RWHP more and better aerodynamics adds up to an easy race in my book. Considering all these things, I probably would've needed about 550 RWHP to be even with him.

Yea i know what you guys are saying..His c6z06 is probaly a full second faster than your car..

but atleaste you bring somthing to the table. 400 rwhp is respectable and it's not like he can just right you off and start in 4 gear at 70 mph like he could with most cars. He had to give atleaste a little effort. And when driving a c6z06..Any time you have to give a little effort to ensure the victory is probally a big deal..

Lots of 250-350 rwhp cars out their these days. but 400 rwhp is still halfway respectable and not easy for a lot of cars to acheive ( even FI cars on pump gas)

Good race and with a few more bolt ons and a nice 50 shot you'll only be 2-3 cars behind next time..

now go get him.
