From a poster I used to keep in my office: "The race doesn't always go to the swift, nor the battle to the mighty - but that's the way to bet."
In this case, I'd bet on the Vette, drivers be damned. There's one shift involved, a straight back pull from third to fourth, so it's going to take a really bad driver against, say, powershifting Malter to change the outcome.
From 100 in fourth? Hmm. Maybe I put my money on the Powerkraut.
Against a Z51 C6? I'd bet on the Bow Tie Brigade, except in a very short race. The M3 will have better traction and more effective gearing while both cars make their way up into the meat of the power.
