Yeah. They said on their post over there that they were looking for evenly matched cars, which to me would be a full bolt on 370Z Sport vs. lightly bolt-on modded 5.0 w/ Brembo package.
Stock for stock the 5.0 is faster in a straight line but on a road course the Z would beat the non-Brembo 5.0 and get beat by the Brembo 5.0. The Brembo cars get the sport suspension and summer tires like the 370 Sport.
We'll see, though. If it is true and they pick this guys car against, say, Bullitts 370, then there's really no point.
