That’s what the video showed. My gt500 trapped 133 stock.

Certainly under those particular conditions it did. Z's have trapped as high as 135 under favorable conditions.

Either way, they're probably pretty close most of the time. At least from a dig, the 500 would never be able to close the enormous gap before both cars hit their limiter's.

It's a bit more than that but yes, Tremec manufactures both transmissions and they do not have the same number of forward speeds.

Just put up a sign with a New Balance BOGO sale and the Corvette owner will be to distracted to race.

i've only seen the new gt500s trap around 129 to 131 stock.
lol... like i said. cant go wrong either way. The gt500 is for the guy who is gonna mod and tinker. I dont think the motor in the z06 is gonna hold up with a turbo kit. those motors have a hard enough time being stock.
