^^ that would be a nice race. i think the LP640 vs the LP560-4 would be a great race! their stats are almost identical from what i have seen...

i leave for a damn week and yall get a bench racing section...damn it must be getting bad in here.

ZR1 will win due to being able to overpower the GT, but as far as potential power making the GT will hand the ZR1 it's *** all day, IIRC Joe's GTTT (which he sold to a 19year old who wrecked it the same week) was making 157xrwhp and 1300rwtq when he sold it....but with these cars it really comes down to the driver more than the car

Alright, I've had a Ford GT and now an '09 Z06. The two are very similar with the nod almost all around goes to the Z06. Braking, handling, acceleration is almost dead even. I loved my GT but it would get raped against a ZR1 in any category. That car is absolutely nuts.
Also, the GT saw a best of 24 highway at 75, for those of you who were arguing about it.

Not to say you are talking out of your ***, but in this case you might be. Are you telling me, that a ZR1 with a TT system like the one on the Ford GT you mentioned, can't compete?

That doesn't make sense.

I think he is questioning the durability of the motor. Really, I don't know if we know the limitations of an LS9 yet. It is forged, but it seems that it is extremely hard to break the 5.4 in the GT.

Well I just wanted some substance from him. The fact is, that limitations on the LS9 are not known yet. So before we say the it cant "compete", we should at least have a reference point.
