Welcome back Matt. Your GT3, particularly the buckets, is simply gorgeous! Not sure if white will be as fast as your red one though..........

I'd be interested in hearing more Z06 comparisons as well, particular how well they stood up for entire track days. My friends who had Z06s loved the power, but it didn't last all day, and they would be in limp mode, or just reduced power very early on their track days, when they ran a Z06

The black headlight option compliments the car well.

It is stated somewhere that RED is worth 50 hp.

No, it's been confirmed that photons have mass. Since white reflects all the photons, it is the lightest and fastest. Black would be the slowest followed by the other darker colors and red.
