Off the line, if the Evo and STi do a BRUTAL clutch drop, they'll get off the line quicker than the Z06. After that, it's lights out for the Evo and Sti.

Just look at power to weight ratios:

EVO: 3263/271 = 12.04 #/hp
STi: 3263/300 = 10.88 #/hp
Z06: 3000/405 = 7.41 #/hp

After the launch the Z06 will eat them up easily. The EVO and STi might have the lead until 60 mph but after that it's all over.

I've got a friend in town who just got a Z06. Some day I'll post about my blood bath (I've got an EVO). With some mods the EVO and Sti can hold up much better but stock versus stock it's no contest.

Agreed. If the AWD cars have less than a perfect launch, they might even lose the 0-60 race.
