The blower should even things up a bit!

I wouldn't think the Z06 is big in the KSA. Very cool to know you guys are rolling around over there in them.

Congrats on your new build. Cant wait for the results.

That is so cool. I thought only Americans drove American cars. At least in abundance.

All in the works. I need drags for the street and it should be a good run.

I don't know about the old lady going to church though. LOL. The car is a pain in the *** to drive to be honest. Not the worst car Ive driven, my 66 Chevelle takes that easily.

The ZR1 in the hands of a good driver will easily beat a Z06. As expected though considering how much more HP the ZR1 has. I believe the best time is 10.4 1/4 mile out of the box. 10.7 for the Z06. Both bone stock on drags
"'66 Chevelle"....an original one?....what are the specs?
I love my American Muscle!.....'70 Dodge Challenger 426 R/T Hemi is my favourite.

and the price is going to be

Stick with the C6 Z06 for now or get a C6 ZR1.

I am pretty amazed myself with the Z06. Its my first Vette and I have always wanted one. It has surely exceeded my expectations and I haven't even modded it yet. Get it you wont regret it.

Sold a c6 Z51 when I got the c63. It had long tubes, exhaust, intake & tune. It was probable as fast as the MB. I have driven a zo6 and know it is a lot quicker. I got a little discusted with the quality after a couple of years. Lots of little,annoying things started to fail. But I am a GM man at heart---first fast car was a 69 Z in 1977.

Your comparing a Z06 that is 31xx lbs with 470+whp sae. Against my c63 which is 39xx lbs with less 430whp. Thats at least 900lbs difference. A good 8-9mph faster then my c63. I knew I was going to get raped. Propain bring out your C63.

Trying? We all know this is going to happen. I was a good sport to even run him and knew he had the gopro. BTW I ran a few members from this forum who drive C55,clk550 and raped them. But never posted the video. Of course Propain wants the attention.

I don't see the difference. Still a rape. You even said it. You beat that LTH,tune c63 by many cars.

Attention? Not really. I just enjoy a good comparison. Since I own the C63 too and you and I are pretty much identical it was a good test to see how much faster the Z06 is than my car. I pretty much raced my C63 except you weight 60 pounds less than me.

Big rape.

You can see the difference though. You got a 1 car jump in both races. Hagi and I were a close start. By the time I was shifting into 4th against Hagi my tail was at his front fender. By the time I was shifting 4th against you I was 2 cars ahead of you. Dont forget I also made up the 1 car jump and all the lost momentum too. I figure if you and I had an even start like I did with Hagi you would have been 4 cars back shifting into 4th. If I am able to start in my power band in 1st (Soon as I get drags) You would be 6 cars back going into 4. You can even see the difference when I race Hagi from 45 mph instead of 40. By the time I shift 3rd im ahead.


Thanks for the race though Jon and being a good sport about it.

It's one thing to beat a car, when both start at the very same time. It's quite another when one car leaves first, has to be reeled in, and is then walked. Takes a MUCH quicker car to do that.
