Aerodynamics (A) doesn't just equal the cd of the car.
A = cd * frontal area.

Not sure!

Nice kill and good thread. I actually learned a little something.
I also feel the new C6 Z06 has a broad and fat powerband which is another reason it performs SO well. Anyone have a dyno sheet for a stock Z06 and a similarly powered evo so we can compare?

Evo

A = cd * frontal area
Z06:
A = .34 * 22.3 = 7.582
Evo:
A = .38 * 23.3 = 8.854
So yes, the Z06 is a lot more aerodynamic than a Evo.

Just admit that the Z06 is the better, faster, lighter car. End of story, no need to try and make up reasons why he lost.

This is a local video the Evo (FQ340 right hand drive) made 607 AWHP and the supra was at an unknown hp level. Both cars on race gas. With the evo having one more passenger than the supra.

We will run only if you get your car back in time. If not, I am getting my goodies on. I am dying to get them on man. Keep me updated..

It was a good kill for me.
Oh ya, my car is stock, 460 rwhp..

And thanks to whoever found the frontal area data. Really shows how much advantage the Z has there. I guess the width does not make up for the height of the Evo

when I run my friends 340 rwhp in my 295 rwhp moostang he gains at the beginning and about 100 - 120 I come dragging him back in and make all my ground back up. It is one of the oddest races i have ever had. and I have run him 10 times.
He has stock wing and canards on the front.
