[QUOTE="Purvis, post: 10509981, member: 29683"] Yes this is an old thread.. But looking back, many of you were missing one important aspect of this race. If you read Hutnem's post that I quoted below, you will see the GT500 raced the Z a few times, before the video clips that were posted on this thread were recorded. Its very important to realize that after the GT500 races a few times, HEAT SOAK sets in on the blower, and he is making NO WHERE near 700 at the wheels. Probably losing in the neighborhood of 75-100 rwhp. I cant tell you how many times that I have seen ZO6 drivers, bate the GT500 drivers into false starts, or some kind of excuse to get the GT500 to go WOT to get the supercharger all heated up. The Z drivers record the race after the GT500 blower is all heated up. You GT500 drivers have to be smarter than this!! IF the Z06 screws the first race up, and bates you into racing a few moments later.. Dont race him again for quite a while. Give your car time to cool down.. like 5 mins. You just have to watch out for heat soak! [/QUOTE]
