Until then, I'll refuse to believe that the Boss is just as fast as the Z06 when it gives up 60 hp, 450 lbs, about an inch of rubber on all 4 corners, and umpteen different little things that the Z06 has in its favour. The laws of physics don't allow for that to happen unless there is a bunch of technology helping you out (such as with the GTR).
If you slap racing rubber on both cars I would guess the Z06 would outperform the Boss by an even greater margin. The Z06 has more power and is at least 350 lbs lighter, etc, so I have to agree with you on the laws of physics statement.
Damn all this Z06 talk has me wanting one again!! Lol
