and then that's about the time when the driver hits a bump and loses control or a turn comes up and is unable to slow down fast enough he rams right into a pole or flips his car and then.......

The Corvette appears to be a base model, not the 405hp Z06, and I doubt the owner really got on it. The V-8 has incredible torque and would have at least pulled ahead initially, but would have been limited to the Corvette base model's automatic. The M6 seemed to be a rather realistic run; it easily walked away from the RSX. Either way, both cars; the M6 and the C5 vette would have walked all over the RSX on a racetrack.

Well he was slowly pulling on the M6 until he missed what ever gear it was and the M6 pulled on him so he could have beat the M and the vette did appear to be a base model, but a vette none the less and at that high of a speed, the RSX would be damn near full boost so the lack of torque would be a moot point since they are at highway speeds.

Good race on both though, the RSX seems to be a quick car.
