Actually, on second thought , I probably would bet on the Porsche .
There is a better than average chance the Chevy will break it's drive shaft when trying to get going ( something to do with engineering I think )

Why don't you look up the definition of PERFORMANCE before you start comparing . Going fast from 0 - whatever does not "a GREAT car make"

I bet if Chevy were to strap a jet engine to a soap box , you would be in Drag Heaven and bragging about it's PERFORMANCE.
JCS - I only laugh out loud when I am by myself at my computer a few times a year, and this was one those times - the "plastic garbage can" thing killed me, I don't know why - thanks for the laugh

Who cares.
If you want to be a dickhard racer get the Z06
If you want to have some fast speed and German quality get a 997tt..
Both cars can be racing a beat Civic with extreme mods can blow right by both of you..who cares...

If you bought a Z06 to brag about how much faster your car is in a drag race then you're wasting your money and our time - same goes for 997 Turbo owners. Take 'em thru some turns; you'll quickly realize (or not) that it's all about the driver, not how much power you have... v

Though you are completly right. The point is, that one of these two vehicles will be serviced by the same dudes that service the cavalier...


also think the c6 will take this one.

The Z06 isn't even in the same league, these comparisons shouldn't exist. AWD vs. RWD?? WTH! The GT2 should be compared to the Z06, not the Twin. The GT2 is RWD!

in all fairness then the GT2 should not be compared to the Z06, it should be compared to the Blue Devil 600hp/2900#.

In either case, stock for stock in a straight line. My money goes to the vette. Less weight and more power usually win...although gearing and aero play their roll too.

Oh Man I cant believe I missed this thread by this much, HA Z06 nuttin, that 997TT will make it look like a sad puppy weeping on its run flats, heheheh!
Oh who cares what would really help me out is if someone here has Monica Belucci's cell number.

Bottom line is that again its all a matter of personal preferance my money is on the 997TT as always, cause I rather see that in my garage than any Chevy.

The 997TT is gonna spank the Z06.


P.S.- I hope the roof stays on the Z06.

My vote: Z06..
I have no doubt that Z06 will outrun the turbo from the start (due to Turbo lag) but past 100 or 120 mph I would say 997TT will gradually take over.

As much as I love Porsche and have owned about 6 different models Z06 is one hell of a car.

How could you say it will outrun it from a start lol, the 997tt's are proven to be insane off the line already (11.4 sec 1.4 mile run and 3.4 0-60, 8.2 or less 0-100) i think it will be rather close from a roll, dead start not!
