Evolve S/C DCT Vs '12 GT500 and Heads/Cam C6 Z06

Mpact Videos are starting to filter out, GT500 is an ANIMAL! H/C Z06 is not joke either. Rumor has it he wasnt on spray.... until he was losing.

Anyone know if any Evolve/VF/ESS/AA/GINTANI/HARROP runs went down?

Was he starting at the same speed? You have to realize if you start at the first set of cones at 60mph your end speed will be higher than if you start at 40mph. I know because I was there racing during the slipstream event.

Unless everyone agrees to always start on the first set of cones at a speed, its more comparable when your racing side by side. You would need a method of verifying starting speed. I know slipstream is working on that for the next event

There is a direct comparison with the grey evolve car and that white m3 posted in this section

Both cars were on pump gas Friday and did 147mph traps. Both cars added 100 octane for Mpact and traps went up significantly.
The ESS car had a 160mph trap but started from the turn around cones, not the rolling start cones, so it was never added to official ranking as that is more like 2100 ft, not 1600

Friday during the slipstream event? I know for a fact the ESS car had racegas during that day. My car was next to them in the pits. That car ran well and it was the best event i'd been to. I was planning on making Mpact but i had a issue with my front tire fender liner breaking loose and rubbing against my tire while running at high speeds.
