I'm surprised that a supercharged and modded Viper didn't win.

F355: Best looking Ferrari from the outside and a utterly hopeless case of poor engineering from the inside!

Does anyone else find a little odd that all of these are rolling starts. It is quite possible that with the mismatch in RPMs at whatever speed they are going, could be bias to the supra? While Supras are quite nasty, I think an off the line challenge here would have an extremely different result.

Supercharged ZO6 loses to a single turbo Supra? I'm sure he sprayed.

Vortech is centrifugal so it doesn't hit as low as a turbo or positive displacement s/c set-up can. But agree the single-turbo should hit high too. I think typical RWHP for Vortech'd Z06 is near 500 so there are Supras that could pull on it. Maybe Kumar has seen more numbers?
