But all I see is that a much cheaper STREET CAR is keeping pace with a purpose-built-for-race-homologation car. I don't care who has more power. That's simply not relevant.


If GM doesn't give semi slicks as an option it's probably because they're very happy with the Goodyears. Do you honestly think that when the Corvette was developed, no one even considered using the best possible tires?



It's because the Z06 is a street car and only a small percentage will ever see a track. The run-flats are for the driver who doesn't want to be stranded and doesn't mind that their car is only almost as fast as the GT3 RS.



Did you know that run flats are faster than normal tires? Did you know that run flats aren't really the best on normal roads and that they are horrible on a wet pavement?

The Z06 seems to have the more track orientated tires here.Not the GT3 RS.There's a German magazine that tests sports cars on a wet track.The fastest lap times were set by cars(the GT3 and Audi RS4) that had semi slicks.
