lol...i hope you're joking.

I try and always get an agreed value track insurance policy when I go to an actual track.

Definitely increases the cost of a track day, but the peace of mind is worth it.

I'd be surprised if the Vette were faster. It certainly isn't built for the same "durability" on the track as the Z/28 is.

For reference, you can buy a year-old 997 GT3 Cup Car for well under what a Turbo S will run you.

Then you have a real race car to use for the track.. :P

A comparison vs a GT3 and the (hopefully) forthcoming GT350 (assuming it is track-oriented as rumors suggest) would be interesting.

That's fair. It's a silly comparison, I'll definitely agree on that, you wouldn't cross-shop a Z/28 with a Turbo S.

This is an invalid argument for the discussion at hand.

This isn't about egos, it's about a 70k car being as fast as a 120-140k car around a track.
