Amazing how that heavy GTR is so fast! The Z06 has got more power and weighs 300 lbs. less too...Yeah yeah, AWD launch, I know. But still it's amazing for what it can do.

But the Z06 had level 2 aero and was a manual.
Lets see what happens with level 3 aero and auto transmission?

im pretty sure the Z06 had the stage 3 aero because isnt that was the clear wickerbill and that seemed to be the problem. it was causing a lot of drag limiting its straight line acceleration. It was down 7+ mph to the GTR. MT removed the rear clear wicker bill that made it more like a level 2 aero. that improved the speed my 1MPH but made the car harder to control.

You know the solution to drag?...

.... Moar POWAH! with 45k to spare I think you could definitely put something together to be more competitive with the GTR if not surpass it on the track.

For those speaking to money argument... I will say that it is a valid argument. Throw $45k into a Z06 with Z07 package and lets run them again... You are paying for more technology and exclusivity with the GTR nismo.
