11 Supercars + Empty Airstrip = EPIC DRAG RACE!
#52
All the cup tires look pretty much the same to me....
ok sorry in cali they are but most people in most areas do not consider r comps as street tires.
From their last review of the 2012 gtr and Zo6 carbon you see that the zo6 carbon is already nearly as fast as the gtr when the Z06 was on the PS2 tires. (I think that it was on PS2's, I couldn't tell, and they never said, but I believe that it was before they started offering the z06 on cups.) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wfzqmpQQfOs So putting the Z06 on Cup tires in this test would have made it faster. I am not saying that it is fair that some of the cars were on normal tires, but they test the cars in whatever spec the manufacturer gives it to them in. In reality anyone who owns one of these cars that is serious about tracking them is going to put them on r-comps anyway. Heck you'd be silly to track the Z06 on anything but Hoosiers. They are the stickiest and cheapest tire you can get for the Z06.
That's the equivalent of me short shifting the GTR, and removing the front drive shafts, and calling the car twitchy.
These geezers need to understand that performance traction control software, whilst being intangible...is still as important as hardware to get the car performing right.
