If the Z06 brakes from 102mph - that is unfair. Being lighter would in no way make up for that because the Corvette comes from the factory as a light weight car. Futhermore, even if the cars brake from exactly 100mph, we can't say the GTR has the disadvantage of being heavier - it also also has bigger brakes and better tires.

His point is that despite this advantage, the Z06 still failed to outbrake the GT-R.

As I said, tires are crucial when it comes to braking.
