Why is it so hard for some Porsche owners to just accept the facts? I don't get it. The Porsche is the better all around car. We all know this, as do I as a Z06 owner. The Porsche is more refined, better ride, more luxerious, more exclusive. These are things one can't argue because they are true.

Why is it that as a Z06 owner, I don't have a problem admitting the facts yet, as Porsche owners, you do?? Is it some kind of insecurity complex? Like "[beep], I spent 130K on my car, it can't possibly be slower than a 70K Z06??"

The only time the TT will be close with the C6 Z06 is when racing from a dig UP TO THE 1/4 mile point. That is it. After that, it will get passed. Even within the 1/4, if the Z06 driver is very competent, then the Z06 will win. How many times did you hear about a 997 TT running mid-low 11's stock @124+ mph? I sure haven't. How many times have you heard of a Z06 doing it? More than a dozen, with me being one of them. It took a Protomotive stage I 997 TT to run an [Email]11.3@124[/Email] mph, something a Z06 has done bone stock by SEVERAL different owners.

Get over it people, the TT IS NOT AS QUCIK AS THE Z06. It is close from a dig up the 1/4 mile, and that is about it. from any roll, the TT is histroy. There is no shame in that. The F430, Gallardo, and some other exotics are also slower. SO WHAT??

Please explain to me why you guys can't accept the fact that the Z06 is the overall quicker car especially when what I said above has been backed up by mags and now a video??



Easy killer
It will eventually lead to presenting people who have proof of their times and they will be the reps of their car type. Example, in the 1/4 mile there are several videos proving a stock Z06 will do high 10's at almost 130 in the quarter mile with a good driver AND Tires. Now I personally haven't seen any 997 T's able to do that yet, if someone has (even if its just one person) they need to speak up.

Using just regular tires the TT 997 Turbo will run with the Z06 in the 1/4 mile due to its launch enhancements. Then there is the Auto-Track, this is where the big problem is, the cars are too close to call for sure. In straight line performance of 2 manual cars with tires of their choice, I believe the Z06 is going to accel past the 997 T. With all that said, the 997 T is way more refined and the best all-rounder; it scores high in a lot of categories, not just acceleration and the occasional track characteristics.
