MC is right, though. Stock for stock the ZR1 should win out with equal talent behind the wheel. It's a track beast.
Grand west is still a super high speed course relative to most other courses. P/w plays a much more heavy-handed part when you are running such high speeds.


See gt vs m3 on willow or laguna, then watch the m3 spank it at vir due to the high speed straights.

What, you don't like it when the rear tires want to fly away?
