Yes, stock. The seats save only 6 lbs total (I measured it). A friend has one that's tricked out. Maybe we should ....

Nice video - had to send that to one of my Z06 buddy... He doesn't care for Porsche so once again I had to show him who's boss! Thanks..

I must agree with u on this. Although they didnt really get up to high speeds, i expected the CGT to have had a much bigger lead. We still need the 997 Turbo vs Z06 video!!!!
thanks

Getting the GT off the line very quickly is a challenge. There is always a lot of wheel spin, with or without TC on. With enough tries, you can get a good launch, but if I recall, even when Leno tracked it, he had 20+ launches before he got it right.

Truer words have never been spoken. It's obvious that this car was not designed to launch from a standstill. Here's a clip of me at the strip, even when I rolled out of the gate, I still got a lot of wheelspin.
