| Test Notes | |||
| Road and Track, May 2008, Vol 59, Number 9, Pg. 56: | "The Z06 has all that power being put to the ground through only two wheels. So you're very busy in this car. It has so much power; it's always trying to break free. With all that torque, it's often better to take a section of the track in a higher gear. You really have to be careful with the throttle." | ||
