To bad more of you guys don't live around here...we'd have hoot at the track
Infineon or Thunderhill are localNo kidding..Pacific Raceways is a blast, but I'd really like to make a field trip to Thunderhill or Laguna one of these days. Where do you usually run at?

Noise...dang, i guess i'll turn the radio up thenFrom Colin: "Paul: I was on Toyo R888s, but never again as they are way to noisy, its Hoosier R6/A6 from now on."

It's amazing what a well setup lower horsepower car can do with a talented driver vs. a high horsepower car with a so-so driver. Collin drove the Griggs Mustang GT just like a good Miata driver - momentum car with little braking, carrying a lot of momentum through the turns, while the C6/Z06 was braking way too much. Awesome video! I would like to see what Collin could do in the Corvette with his talent - that would be an awesome video too.
I don't think the C6 would be an improvement over a well setup GR40 car. After driving a C6 for 3 days at Bondurant I'd take the GR40 anyday.
COLIN from what i recall turns laps 4 seconds faster then a lighty moded Z06 on two different tracksI would agree - comparing a Griggs GR40 vs. a regular C6, but not a C6 Z06. I would take the Z06.

Its pretty clear that a gr40 (the TT or RT versions) are faster then stock z06s, mind you i have yet to see a gr40 with a completey stock motor, most have atleat 360 hp like the one in the vid.
BUT some people prefer certain cars...That i can't fault anybody with
I love the new grand sport/z06 for what it is tho.
Be interested to know what tires are on the Corvette?
Z06 and Z51 are the same car less 70 hp. Same chassis, brakes, shocks, steering. Different tires.
