All I can say is the new Z06 is one impressive machine. Best bang for the buck out there.

By the way, the vette started slow because it started in second gear.

In first gear it would just spin all day long.

See what happened once the RPM's came up?

God help the guy in the Z06 if anything happens on the road ahead of him, he barely had 2 fingers around the steering wheel.



Not very smart when your easily breaking triple digit speeds.

The new Z06 is one hell of a car. It looks pretty friendly to drive. Nice sounding exhaust.

I wonder if the guy in the Gallardo is wondering what his extra 100+k went towards?!?

A better looking car maybe....
