On a road course (laguna seca), same driver, both car has bolt ons (exhaust intake tune), stock brakes and suspension, which car would win?

 

Which C6, Z51, Z06..etc
Tires would would make a bigger difference on the Vette. It's night and day when you change from street tire to track tire on the C6. I would say a Z06 with sticky compond would get the edge.

 

ls2, stock street tires.

 

i watched mazda miatas own c6 vettes all day at summit point. i think with the same driver i favor the evo. bear in mind the evo was made for rally/road course.

 

The better driver would win, period.

 

i realize i am posting on evo forums, looking for unbaised answers cause i really don't know which car would win.

Edit: ^same driver, which car would have the faster lap time on laguna seca?

2nd edit: i'll assume 1 corvette vote = 4 evo votes lol

 

Easy way to find out Grand Trismo 5 FTW

 

I have never been on Laguna Seca, but based on personal experience driving an evo on street tires with TBE, tune, intake & MBC on the tracks here in the NE I have never had trouble getting around any corvette (c6 or c6z) on street tires or even semi slicks like R888 or NT-01's. R-comps are a different story all together though. lol.

I would think a track with lots of fast sweepers and long straights would give an advantage to the corvette, but thats more like a drag racing than a road course.

 

I'd still say driver skill level(even the same driver) would play the biggest part. With a pro driver in both cars I may go with the Vette. Someone that has never been to a track before in both cars... I'd say the Evo. From what I remember of Luguna(Gran Turismo lol) there are some decent size stretches and not a ton of tight corners so I'd lean towards the Vette.

 

Please explain how it would come down to driver skill if its the SAME DRIVER?

 

Good catch there.

OK, I vote for the Corvette. The horsepower difference is pretty substantial, and with equal driver, should win the day easily.

 

That is a very good point. Both pro drivers.

 

Evos are pretty slow so probably the corvette.

 

On a dry track, C6 all day.

 

Corvette. Both cars can handle but the Evo is way too low on power.
