**EDIT** just rewatched the vid and at the beggining it looks like the M6 is white? Is that correct?

I think the m6 gearing is setup for top end which is where it started to pull away but look at the mods it took to do it. cam/exhaust/tune on the z06 and its a whole different story

There's still over a 1000lb difference in weight. That alone makes the M6 impressive. Sure, it's not impressive to beat a stock car, but anything that can even hang with a C6 Z06 is a quick car in my book.

That M6 is impressive because it costs 110 thousand plus 25 k in mods and it still didn't "pull" the z06 that hard...
In my opinion its impressive for creature comfort but other than that that v12 heavy pig really isn't all that much to boast about.. a 7sp trans isn't that spectacular.

Granted I do live at a higher elevation but still not impressed sorry.
