Yeah, but your car is Agate Gray, so other 991 TTSs might not beat a Z06 quite as handily.

Time and again it seems the Z06 does not make the advertised 650 bhp

Best drivers car with C&D the car didn't even run correct. No boost.. surprising these cars are having such problems.

My point exactly. Your car has 560 hp. If the Z06s were actually making the claimed 650 they would leave you in the dust. But they don't. There is something really wrong with that car.

Yes I saw that. Big black eye for Chevy. That is not the first car magazine test where they felt the car was not running correctly either with respect to the engine or suspension.

This zo6 was not stock it was the nastiest sounding car out there that Saturday. Also it did not have the zo7 package so this race was right in its wheel house at a 40mph roll.
If it was from a stop the gap would have increased by another 5 car lengths or so.

Z07 package generates incredible downforce for cornering but destroys the car as a speed event car. I think the thing topst out only in the 180s with the package.
