The new Z28 is BAD!! Beat the GTR track edition and the 991 Turbo S (on conti's not the ultra summer treads) around the track, but (not) surprisingly enough they beat it on the dragstrip. I guess launch control helps!

Cue the new stereotypes- Those foreign cars are only fast in a straight line, only American cars can turn!!

What he said ^^^^

I have a 2002 Boxster and a 2006 Lotus Elise, I tracked the Lotus and use the Boxster as my DD six months out of the year. I love both cars dearly but I'm not afraid to admit that they're not the fastest cars on the street or on the track.

Here at my local track their two guys with Zo6's one is a 2006 and I think the other is a 2007,these cars simply dominate the track their both stock cars with the exception of R compound tires and racing brake pads.

Any one who says these cars cannot handle or are pour on a track, are simply naïve or are living in self-denial.
