06 Z06 is The Big Gun!
Took new Z06 to Spring Mountain Teusday and Wednesday. It is the top gun. I put space on a Gallardo with Dave Roberts driving the Gallardo. I then let the Gallardo pass, let him get some space, then caught it with in 4 turns. I then presured Dave so much that he steped the back end out 2 times. Then he wavied me past.
On the way home I got car to 180 mph!! WOW I am in love with a car.

Where are you getting your mods done? I had a ride in one with the Kooks headers and they were great. I am gonna do the Kooks headers but I am waiting for tuning to be available first. Anybody has tuning ready yet?

Great Stuff, draggincents. I passed on the C6 Z06 (about the 10th time I've decided at the last minute not to get a Z06 for a track car in the last 4 years! ) -- and you're certainly making me (once again) reconsider one...Dammit!
Don't mod that horse until you've had the enjoyment of wringing every last fleck of sweat off of running it at SMMP over the next few/several months. Then mod it.
What are you using for track tires, if you haven't said so already?
And I want to hear more as you continue to enjoy her....

now im really considering getting 1 after my lease is over, u make 180mph seem so easy, i dont mind the speed, just not enough road to safely get to 150+ in my car, 130-140 is a daily thing though

All the local dealers either have a wait list that goes well into next year or they will give you a deal at only $8K-$15K over MSRP

Never been to a vette forum.... but now I no longer wonder why my friend who has C6 is never active in vette forum

So you're still running on the BFG's at the track - sticky enough in the dry....
Cool. Thanks.
