I don't even know how you guys are comparing the Z06 to the R35......it is not even really close, just look at the stock power:weights
If you stuck some stickies on the vette it would work the R35 on any type of course/racing you could think of....
sorry physics doen't lie........... weight FTL

The R35 has a better published Nurburgring lap time than any corvette.
The LF-A prototype is even faster, apparently, but not listed in the above lap chart.
It may be that the Vette can throw down a faster lap, but it hasn't yet done so. Nissan understood all along that the target car for the R35 was the 997 Turbo, and that that to get respect you run at the Nurburgring. They did that and the R35 delivered.
GM either doesn't get it, does't have the car to do it, or doesn't care. It's worth noting that the CTS-V was heavily tuned there, so its not inconceivable that the Vette got some of the same treatment..
