THe Z06 gt3 is much closer to it's road going car compared to a Challenge and the 360.
And your point is?
That this car is much closer to stock than the Challenge is to the 360. The Z06 is based off the C6R while the Challenge is based of the 360 road car. So in reality your just putting the Z06 back to it's original state while your taking a 360 and making it into something it wasn't originally, but the 360 still does a good job at it at a much higher price and the Challenge has a lot less relation to it's road. This isn't too difficult to grasp.
Okay so?

The fact remains that its not road legal lol. Sure you can make it road legal, just like you can turn a 360C into a road legal car.

You try to make it sounds as if its just a Z06, well it isnt. It will take the same to make a 360C road legal, and it will take the same amount of work to make that Gallardo and GT3 road legal as it would with this GT3 Vette.
I really don't understand your comparison to the 360c, all i'm pointing out is this is a Z06 to it's basics and it wouldn't be hard to make it road legal, there shouldn't be an argument to this. This isn't a C6R it's a Z06 GT3, it has to have a huge relation to it's road car. What can you possibly argue about with that statement?
