Exactly. My Cobra is significantly faster in a straight line than my (recently sold) C6 Z06, but there is no question the Z06 is the faster track car. Assuming equal drivers any of the current supercar crop is much quicker on a road course than any Cobra. Modern electronics turn the average driver into Lewis Hamilton, it's literally amazing how much technology has accomplished in the driver aid area.
