    Given the discussions about "who is faster"

    http://forums.corvetteforum.com/showthread.php?t=1365843

    check out the comments about the Z06's 1/4 mile times and trap speeds.

    Re: Given the discussions about "who is faster"

    Every was mentioned except what he was sniffing when he achieved these reults.

    I almost fell off my seat! Wheelchair! Ronnie would blow his top off .
    However you're right, the topic of the C6Z has been done to death.

    Re: Given the discussions about "who is faster"

    I am curious as to what the point of this post is? If my eyes have not deceived me, there is not a mention of any other car in the corvette forum thread, so why would someone from Rennteam post it on the 997TT board?

    Re: Given the discussions about "who is faster"

    Why are we looking at what Modded Z06's are doing? maybe you should go to the Ford GT Forum where there Modding those and getting 1000 RWHP without much trouble or maybe you should look at the Ruf R Turbo. What really needs to happen is the new 997 TIP SCP TT needs to be run head to head with the Z06 and when the TT outperforms it then this Nonsense will be over and we can get back to porsches. If the MT article is correct at 11.4 in the Quarter then in the right hands with many passes a Stock 997 TT will run 11 Flat and alot of other car owners will be very unhappy. wait watch and learn.

    Re: Given the discussions about "who is faster"

    note: the times motor trend achieved were less than ideal, so expect even faster in better conditions. check out the article... i scanned it and its in the "motor trend test" thread

    Re: Given the discussions about "who is faster"

    Let's see any other sportscar manage a 3.2 0-60 and 11.4 1/4 mile in such poor conditions.

    That's a fast 1/4 mile time for that ZO6, but comparing a factory stock car to a modified car doesn't make sense. Or maybe I'm just missing the point of this thread.

    Pardon my ignorance, but it says in in the thread that runs were one EMTs. I'm not familiar with this term, could someone please enlighten me.

    The MT results were not measured by the normal timing/speed devices used at a quarter mile track...so take them with a grain of salt at this point. The car may not test as fast on a proper track...don't be disappointed.

    purpose of this thread

    well, I found it interesting that two seemingly experienced drivers with some modification of their cars were able to record times in the range that have been quoted for the stock 997tt with tip and SC. Sure this is just "bench racing" but we got two months to kill so...

    Re: purpose of this thread

    Out of all the years the 911 and Vette have been built, how many were there where the fastest production Porsche was faster in the quarter mile than the fastest vette?

    Re: purpose of this thread

    I think it has varied quite allot, but I don't know the exact number.
