A LOT. but then, they don't have schumacher driving one and a granny driving the next. i would assume that all the drivers are of a comparable skill level.


nice numbers for the vette for sure.

wow!:eek: and i thought vettes were predominantly straight line power:rolleyes:

[googe]

man, 1 second off both of those bikes...

cant wait to see the z06 :D

[Akagi Redsuns]

Have you seen the a full lap of the Nurburgring? It's not exactly a great track for a bike, very very bumpy turns and tricky corners. I do have a full lap vid from a bike and it's quite amazing.

Oh damn .... they are ask quick as GT-3 and 996 Turbo ? comeone .. crazy driver ....

By the way, how come the Nsx - R is so quick ?? quicker the Lambo and Ferrari ??

how about the Z06 ? ( present one ) :confused:

[lude_conduct]

THe C6 is impressive, but the NSX R's performance is much more impressive to me. Suspension design really is everything on a road course I guess.

all about the suspension and handling and weight loss.

Wait until they get an intrepid on that track.

She'll blow the doors off anything, even my cavalier.

Finally Corvettes are being recognized for what they are truly worth. The Z06 is one of the best handling cars that money can buy. I believe it scores over 1 on the skidpad. Incredible cars.

very quick, so it begs the question, how will the Z06 perform? very well i would think. im suprised how far down the porsches are.

Nurburgring, more than any other track in the world, has A LOT to do with the driver. It doesnt mean nearly as much as it would of had the same driver driven all the cars. I would definately not take this to mean that the C6 is going to be as good as a GT3 around the track.
