I personally hope the car was in fact stock with only a tuned suspension. Porsche needs all the competition it can get to not sleep on its laurels.

 

I hope it's in fact stock w/o tuned suspension, and the tweeks they spent the month there doing will be the same specs as on the production car


porsche will do just fine on the next round

I don't know why they'd lie about it and say it was a z06 and not the blue devil

I'm not saying either of us is right or wrong, I just don't know why one of chevy's head guys would lie about it. I wish people would just be more clear about ****.

 

No need to bash a performance car, especially one that forces other manufacturers to stay on their toes (997 TT). You'd be foolish to think that Porsche isn't interested in the performance numbers of the Z06, Viper, etc. Since most owners can't/don't race, paper racing is the bragging rights alot of people want in the form of 0-60, 1/4, etc. The truth all comes out when all the cars are brought together in one place and tested by one of the mags. Even within a manufacturer politics comes into play as evidenced by the Boxster/Cayman/997 heirarchy and how they are careful not to let one of the little siblings be better on paper than the bigger brother. Before the 997, unless loaded with expensive options the Porsche interiors were very basic looking crap. Some purists might say they like it that way but give me something more modern in my modern car. If I want 1970's then I'll by a car from that decade.

 

That's a reason I love the 993TT inside, it's barebones basic, nothing gimmicky.
