Mine is not supercharged. I have an 06. Besides..the 02 Z06 is still faster on the highway...I mean 220 hp vs 405hp is a big difference when you are going from 80 to 150. I have been in both of them...the ExigeS does feel very close to the Z06 though..it would be a VERY close race up to 100mph..then the Z06 would pull away.

trap speeds don't win 1/4 races! ETs do! good kill and excellent death!

I did some research
The 02 Z06 does: 0-60 in 4.0 and the Quarter in 12.5 at around @ 115 mph
Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder: 0-60 in 3.8 and the Quarter in 12.1 sec @ 116.3 mph

As you can see from the trap speed...the Gallardo is fast to 60 when you launch it..you don't have the work the Z06 as hard to get a 4 seconds to 60 run.

yeah..thats cliff's red Gallardo. He is actually a really cool guy. He is always positive and never has a bad thing to say about anyone. Everyone here seems to think highly of him as well.
Its not the fact that we got game of the year that allows us to get nice cars...its because the Owner (TIM) is such a good guy. There are a lot of studios out there that sell TONS of games....but the big guys at top keep all the money.
