The Ford GT(500Hp) truley amazing 327CID twin turbo charged!
Saleen S7(550HP)
Porsche 959 (450HP)
Porsche 911 Turbo (420HP)
Lamborghini Gallardo (500HP)

The new Z06 has a 7litre(427CID) V-8 500HP engine, with 475 ftLBS of torque.

A lot depends on the power to weight ratio of each car, then ultimately on the skill of the driver. Still, I'm sure the C6 can hold its own against any if not beat them outright.

Vette(s): 1975 C3 Red, T-Tops, Black Interior. All I need is time and money! Getting there!

I used to tell my students I would race my 60 hp 1986 Sentra against anyone on any track anytime.  They asked how I could do that.  My reply, very easy, I would lose!

With a ZO6 I could give a different answer.  The compairsons in the mags will be interesting.  Keep in mind, what wins on one road/track could lose on another with different conditions.  Several of the cars you mention have an edge over the others in given conditions.
