[quote=Deuuuce;3816918]Great story but why lie? I hate that. This isn't Pinks.
I did not mean my car was stock. I meant the SC on a SL55 is Stock. I should have made that more clear.

Nice kill. Did we ever establish if it was a C5 Z/06 or the C6 Z/06? Just curious since there is a difference. Either way, good one...

I got rid of an 06 Z-06 for the 05 SL55 and I can tell you first hand experience that the Z-06 IS faster than the SL55 but not by a lot. The Mercedes is far superior in the suspension and ride quality but then it should be for the price difference. Bang for the buck the Z-06 is awesome.
PS if you go to u tube and put in the name Ranger Z-06 he ran 10.s in a stock Z on video and runs 11s all the time.

A C6 Z06 would have been a closer race, no doubt. But even the C5 Z06s are no slouches, especially with some bolt-ons. Nice run; your SL probably catches a number of unsuspecting muscle cars by surprise!
