Now the top tier versions of the C6Z and a new C7Z...no, not so much.

And it's highly unlikely a GT500 will go after any Vette minus straight line and power comparisons.
You know, I'd take that bet. Considering GT350tp vs C7 Z51 is pretty even. GT350R being even faster. The thought of a GT500 utilizing the GT350's track ready components plus a drivetrain cranking out some 700hp (think TT 5.2 or 5.4 CPC) doesn't really put C7 Z06 out of reach. A Z07 pkg or a ZR1...yeah, no. But a Z06...maybe.
