Well i could get tires for the GTO from a shop but idk about a DCT for the ZR1. Also i could put a supercharger on the GTO. Way to ruin a convo.

GTO would lose. Give the Z a DCT and 30Bhp more....

Here is an interesting question: Who would win if both are using pilot sport cup tires? I'd love to be a spectator to that one!

I'd still say the GTO will have an edge with a proper driver mainly because of it superfast gearbox. I'd say they are pretty equal in a straight line. But we can only know with a proper track battle. Remember the ZR-1 lost badly to even the Ferrari 458 italia in best motoring race. And the GTO is faster than the Italia. And the main difference between the "012 corvette zr-1 and the 2009 one is the better track tires. I think the GTO would be more than capable to keep up with its P-zero corsa track tires. Its so intersting this match up i wish some does it in real life.

Slightly re-designed seats, slightly re-designed steering wheel, Cup wheels & high performance package that includes cups tires and full length spoiler.

Ooh, that's super close, as far as I know, there's no difference between a 2009 Corvette ZR1 and a 2012, except that the 2012 ZR1 is available with black wheels, I'd like to see the Vette and the Ferrari GTO go head to head at the Nurburgring Norsachleiffe circuit, that would be interesting. Both of these cars are awesome, but you know which one I would rather have.

The 2012 Corvette ZR1 is faster than the GTO!!
I m sure about that because the 2008 modell was a bit slower.
The new modell have :
Better tires,
is lighter,...
(i think a lot more power too).
If you look at the ,,Revolution" of the Z06 Corvette, you can see that (for example) the Z06 UPP is much faster than the old Z06.
So i think:
GTO vs 2012 Corvette ZR1
=ZR1 wins.

User avatar

phavyarden  12y ago

I'm not sure about that. The 2012 ZR1 it's crazy fast. I think it would beat the GTO


User avatar

On track I'd imagine the GTO would win given equal drivers.
