I was going to reply to this and then changed my mind... I'd rather think about how fun and fast I will be on the track in this car riding closely behind the Z06's (maybe not passing them) and blowing by pretty much everything else out there! Have fun Sam.

I do agree Jerri. The C7 appears to be a true performer, THERE I SAID IT!! lol
And yes Kappa I used exclamations points...haha.
And how come only 1985 gave me credit for being the first to report 3.8 in the 0-60 category. I would have though the forum would be throwing me a party. :-)

"Here’s a look at the safety gear added to the ZR1’s cabin, including Sparco racing seats, a harness bar, data equipment, and a fire bottle (not shown)."

Jan Magnussen in the C6Z at its original 'Ring test:
Not so different from other Corvette test cars, just like I stated.

Nobody is trying to be condescending, but you want to single out two data point advantages that the Z06 has (only when equipped with the Z07 package in the case of the brakes) as the sole determining factors for the Z06 being a better car.
I would submit that balance, grip, feel and a number of other small factors play large roles as well.
As I stated, it's funny how the Grand Sport is now being completely ignored in comparison to the C7 now that some real performance numbers have been released by GM. The comparison is now turning to GM's track-focused Z06 that starts at ~$77k.

P.S. Notice that most of those who have challenged the C7 have acknowledged the performance numbers in this thread... other than you, that is? Hanging on for dear life, aren't you

I agree!!! GM is exaggerating and the truth will eventually come out!! Unfortunately, the truth is exactly what you see... sorry to disappoint. Sam... you really are a piece of work 
Why are you here other than to annoy everyone else... wait... that's EXACTLY why you are here!
Although I say that somewhat in jest, at some point you really need to give up on trying to turn everything into something it isn't. You were screaming for numbers, now you have them and it is all too predictable that you will discount them because they prove you were overly pessimistic all along. You can make up all of the excuses you want, discount the published results, pick apart the car and stir **** all you like but you just lose credibility more and more. When you are really ready to upgrade performance wise, the good news is you don't need to wait for the C7 Z06... you can simply get a C7 Z51
Now... off to celebrate with my pom poms!

Very nice times!
Something I'm equally surprised about is that the current ZL1 camaro pulled very similar times on the same track.
Chevy has two potent vehicles in it's stable for the coming years.

So, Sam the all knowing... please explain how these numbers are not accurate? Or is that smoke I smell blowing again... wait, don't answer that, I know the answer
