E55 & Z06 getting closer! New pics

Z06 now has 280 miles on it. In one week we should be able to put it to the test. Heads up with 05 E55. What other cars would you like to see a heads up video with? Gallardo? F430? 05 Turbo S Porche? 98 Supra TT BPU++++ NOS? S65? Muri? Porche C-GT? Ford GT? Will happen very soon with all these cars. A friend owns all listed execpt the Ford GT which is my Dad's.

I was able to get my Garage cleaned enough to get 3 cars in for now.

Hooptie
Very nice. Will there be any roll on races or drag only?

If drag only, I am betting on the Z for last place due to traction problems. If roll on races (Where the power of the car is utilized rather than the traction of the tires) my $ is on the Z in regards to all the car mentioned except the CGT/FGT.

Keep us updated

03 E55 k2; Ford GT
I will handle the GT versus the e55 (modified). I own both, my best qtr mile with the E55 was 11.65 and the GT 11.5 but the MPH was vastly different with the GT at almost 130 and the Mercedes at 119.

Saber. I forgot you have the ford GT. I have made about 5 1/4 passes with dads car but there was no timer at the track we were at. The FOrd GT is sick sick sick. I hope I can get the Z06 to work as well. I am trying to get my BRo to get a Ford GT.

Only problem with the Ford is visability on the track and raod. Very hard to spot the Apexes as early as you can with the Z06.
