You implied that weight was what mattered. However, the 100+ wtq #tq and horsepower easily overcomes the weight difference, and brake-fade is not an issue with the CC brakes. Balance is what makes up for that lack of horsepower because the Z06 can hit the corners harder, which makes up for the straights on THAT track. The 100-150# weight difference doesn't matter nearly as much as the balance. SO, all I was saying is that while it IS lighter, the difference in weight distribution is what does the trick. Then you said "I said that". No, you didn't. Anyone "with half a brain" can read your quote and see that you talked about DF, power, and weight. NOTHING about distribution.
