So I wouldn't say the race was completely fair. I think if your car was bone stock and so was his it would of been even.

I am just trying to ind out how much hp Silver's car is pushing.
If indeed Silver's car was @ .9 bar boost, and if you did mean that .9 bar boost = 490 bhp, and not awhp or rwhp, then Silver beat the driver, and not the car. I don't doubt that what happend did happen, but I do doubt he beat the car and not the driver.
This is the problem with street racing. Anything can happen on the street, and most of the times, the better driver will win, even if he/she is in the slower car.
I am sure I will get flamed for this, but a 480 @ .9 bar boost pushing 485 bhp will not beat a stock C6 Z06 with equal drivers.

Those guys on the Vette forum were shocked that a GT2 crushed their beloved Z06.
Chalk up another victory for Porsche, since most of the time the C6 Z06 would spank our turbos.

Well you have a good point. But not in this case. The Z driver is very good, but from the start he was at a disadvantage because the car really broke traction......But after they were rolling, they were still dead even, and did several runs.

As for the Lambo race once again the owner of the Murci (Egear car) was also at Starbucks but with his new Z06 and my friend who has the GT3 left him by 5 car lenghts my friend...
Never doubt I dont BS or makeup any stories...and the M5 Story is from 2 true die hard P-Car guys who have a ridiculous amount of track driving experience...

So now your friend in the GT3 left a C6Z06 by 5 cars? You and your friends, need to stop smoking the crack. Here is fact:
Murci will destroy the Gt3
C6Z06 will destroy the Gt3
Murci/C6Z06 will destroy the M5

the F430 smokes the Gallarado and the GT3 holds up just fine...

Did they do any runs from a roll? If they did, and if it were equal drivers, the Z should win.
Oh, and a GT3 would not touch a Gallardo. A GT3 is slower than a 996 TT, and a Gallardo is quicker than a 996 TT.
C6Z06/Murci (Close race, would give the edge to the Z) >GT2>Gallardo>996 TT>GT3
This is straight line acceleration.
Ask anyone that has driven ALL cars and is NOT biased and they will tell you the same thing.

They did run from a roll....dead even if not a slight edge to the TT
I have no horse in the lambo vs GT3
But from my experience with several stock TTs....MY GT3 is faster. MY GT3 can hold its own vs modded TTs,....to the point of not being embarrassed.
If a stock TT can out run MY 3....I have yet to run across it.
