Then why the hell are you comparing the Z06 and the Carrera at all? Going by your logic, if I spend 25k on the Carrera I can make it run faster than any corvette on earth. That doesnt mean anything at all. We (actually,
you started it) are comparing stock corvettes to stock Carrera GTs. Get that?

And you, sir, are blinded by the fact that you own a corvette and you want to savagely defend your buying decision by battling it out on, of all things, an internet forum. Post some autocross times or come to Waterford Hills, run with the big guns, put your damn money where your mouth is.
We have all heard that when the flag drops, the b*ll****e stops. Why dont you prove that?
Just because you have a corvette, and you socialized with some people who have driven exotic machinery, doesnt make your opinion any more valuable than mine. If you have the cajunas, go to the track and prove it.
You said people who read about it vs. people who have seen it. If you want that to hold water, maybe you should think about proving it on the track.
Of course, nothing personal against you or the corvette.
