Ha...pretty fast. Good one. The Turbo S benefits from awd and a perfected launch control system to get those acceleration times from a dig. As you can see where the Z06 extra hp/tq come into play is from a roll, like you know on a road course.
Otherwise every performance measure is in favor of the Z06.
Turbo S has the 1/4 time but the trap speed is less. Also you can see from a roll (5-60, 30-50, 50-70), the Z06 has more grunt.
Turbo S get murdered in lateral G and braking. Isn't even a contest. Z06 set C/D records for a production car.
