i am rather perturbed to c the z06 get beat on the 0-60 by some ricer on steroids, but i just keep thinking, it still doesn't beat it on the 1/4 or the top end. i think it's just that darn launch control that helps it off the line. but watch the video on youtube of edmunds testing it, it doesn'tlook that fast off the line, looks like a lot of wheel spin. but in any event, i am impressed somewhat and angry. i just hope this encourages gm to pump the vette up a little. i don't mind gm being beaten by european beast, but just not by ricers!
