Yeah that's a fair counterpoint, although the F12 weighs 4003 lbs and only makes 730 hp. That would be 5.48 lbs/hp.
The C7 Z06 is expected to be even more potent at ~3300 lbs and 620 hp, or 5.32 lbs/hp.
I think weight distribution comes into play too.
F12: 47/53 weight distribution, 2122 lbs over the rear wheels
Z06: 49/51 weight distribution, 1683 lbs over the rear wheels
So not only does the Z06 have a better power-to-weight ratio, but it has less weight over the rear wheels.
But it is a good point to bring up the F12 because I haven't seen any reviews mentioning an inability to put power to the ground.
