I would have needed a lot more than that unless of course you are refering to GT3-RS!

The Z06 is an awesome machine - I would have need something with a lot more hp and lighter than my lil piggie to keep up.

I wasnt too bothered about the speed differential between the two cars as I certainly expected the Z to be miles ahead. Nor was the braking performance as my car was about 600 lbs heavier.

But I was disappointed to see how my car was jumping up and down on the bumps and was tramlining a lot while braking on rough roads. Particularly since the Z car was taking it really well - the N-ring shocks are really awesome 8)

On smooth roads the car is fine - understeer is there but everything is very predictable and safe. But throw in rough surfaces and try taking corners at speeds of 80-100mph the car was a big handful porpoising at several spots. I think the stock suspension in the US car sucks - it needs better dampening and shock valving. STASIS has the solution I believe ...
