USTCC Spec WRX VS Stock Z06

Gary Sheehan's WRX VS a Z06 on a lap around the track. Nice side by side video. I like how snarly his WRX is.

at that point it all come's down to the diver's! cause that's freakin' close!

 

If that video says ANYTHING to the viewer, it's that the Z06 is damned impressive and not even an econobox with more than the Z06's price invested into it can impressively beat one.

 

I agree.
Sheenan's WRX is a full prep touring car, makes the Z06 look even more impressive.

 

For sure, I couldn't believe how close they were... I knew the corvette had more power but I thought for sure the race car would be able to beat it in braking.

 

Or at least handling, with all that was done to that car. Sheesh, I guess a subpar platform will never be able to hang with that "leaf-spring suspended, pushrod-powered" Corvette.

 

Impressive, makes you want a Z06 even more...... right Paul
