GT2 Upclose and Personal

Hey guys...got some time in a GT2....in a word WOW!!
It is a Carrera White/Alcantara & Black Leather Sport Seats...Yellow Stitching and Belts....car is very deceiving....needs a set of KKK Ball Bearing Turbos...LOL...too civilized.
Car spools up quickly and without lag...also without any drama.
Very quiet....while sitting on for all intents and purposes a GT3RS chassis...the exhaust note is different because of a shorter pipes.

Having been in both cars...I firmly believe that up top...sat from 125/to the limit...the GT2 will pull on the ZO6....from a dig...i would not be so quick to dismiss the Zed.
That video that shows a GT2 killing a Z06 was really a poor indicator.
As we have several Z06's (from Stock to Heavy Mods) I will see if we can arrange some sort of "duel"
