Question

This is just getting beaten to death. The ZR1 on drag tires should be able to beat a Demon if the demon has it's interior and stock computer tune. The power to weight should be close, if not favoring the Vette. By now we're all seeing that the factory Demon drag radials are not up the task of harnessing the power it has. It seems like a lot of the Demon owners are switching their tires out to something a bit more sticky. When prepped for full race duty, though, the Demon should win...though it still won't be by that much. My buddy has both a Demon and a C7R z06, and swears the Demon out-handles the Vette on the street. I told him he's crazy, but he may be right. Those factory race tires on the Vette do nothing but pick up rocks, making it hard to get any traction going around turns. With drag radials on all 4 wheels, the Demon does no suffer from these problems.
