Track Video - Finallly!

OK, so I'm an absolute spaz on getting these videos on the internet but here it is. Now that I know how to do this hopefully we'll be able to post many more.

This is the best pass from last Wednesday. I'll post the video with the C6 Z06 a bit later.

Here's two more videos. The first one is with the modded Z06. The second one is the 2nd best time for the car that night.

My 12.04 run, I ran a C5 Z06. He ran a 12.293 at 114.85. He edged us out at the light because his R/T was about .6 faster. By the way, he's not stock. He's got headers, intake, tune and DR's.

The run against the C6 Z06, I ran a 12.160 and he ran an 11.759 with a trap of 122.21. He also wasn't stock. He had cam, headers, tune and DR's. I didn't feel too bad losing to him by that margin, although my 60' was a bit better. 1.806 compared to 1.885.

great runs, i like your car but neither one of those vette owners is a great driver because the c6 should have been in the 10's with all that and the c5 should have at least been in the high 11's, but man your car really picks up speed, are you stock? im assuming you are seeing as you are still in the 12's

Not in Vegas and not at that track!

He has Renntech Stage 5 ... definitely not stock. Stock E55's run 12.6+ at that track in Vegas

C6 Z06 122 trap speaks for itself, if Rudy's modded best was only trappin' 115..& yes @ sea level tracks they run BONE stock low-low 11's and a couple high 10's, if that C6 Z06 was indeed modded the driver deff can't row thru the gears, even at that elevated track, modded like described they put down 550+ rwhp..

E55k looks, soundz great! Rudy! nice job more vids please


So the C5Z06 only had headers & slicks?

Looks like that negates your old arguement/discussion we had Draggon, about your old race w/C5 Z06 w/supercharger you said he only beat you buy 2 car lengths, and a stock C6 wouldn't have a chance in hell against a stock E55k let alone a heavily modded one

Give the C6 same C5 Z06 light mods w/good dyno tune (removes torque management) it runs just as good as C5 Z06.

Sorry Rudy, for slight hi-jack, just remembered all the talk Draggon thru down when I challenged a stock 211 E55k in my lightly modded C6...

and your point? That car in Vegas would have run a 12.9+ @ 108-109

If we're talking stock for stock, I still think the stock E55 beats a stock C5 Z06. And like I said, a modded K2+ E55 beats a slightly modded C5 Z06 with out even breaking a sweet.

And, let's not forget when I ran that blown C5 Z06 I was running on my 20" wheels w/ 25 series tires

That C5 Z06 had DR's... that makes a huge difference. If Rudy was running DR's he would have ran 11.8 for sure so the difference between his car and that modded C5 Z06 would have been .04+ that's huge in 1/4

Point is bro...You said no way! no how! could C6 be any comp for a stock E55k, then proudly stated how a heavily modded supercharged C5 Z06 barely beat you by 2 lengths, would appear from slips, and video above you're totally wrong about the C6, and C5Z06 w/out blower running damned close to heavily modded E55k

Were all wrong once in while guy, just admit it and be done w/it, you gave me some pretty disparaging, put down remarks before about the C6 perf.

There are a couple anomaly E55k's running stock in low 12's majority run right w/C6 Auto at 12.50-12.70 111-114, Magazine data on C6 is always on C6 w/M6 poorly driven in higher 12's and even pathetic 13's

You never mentioned those 20" 25 profile tires before and what are you trying? the C5 Z06 w/headers tune drag tires, against rudy w/renn 5?

That's not an advantage that's retarded ADVANTAGE on E55k, and he only beat him by 2 lengths, in that 1/4 vid, each tenth = 1 car length etc..

I've thrown down the gauntlet so many times, everyone always says they'll race but never show? also I've read about AMGjerry beating 2 stock E55k, in his modded C32 = in power butt heavier than my Vette, so come off it..

I've made many threads, and hopefully Jangy will come thru or a few of the other cool guys in E55k or 63AMG will show this weekend or week?

Figured it was assumed... I did run him on the streets. Do you think I run around town with DR's on the stock wheels and w/ 20" HRE's in the front?!?!?! HAHA

I say you sell that C5 Z06 rattle box and get yourself a real car.

So funny guys like you give Merc owners a bad name, I owned an S class, was a pain in the *** at the frickin' dealer more than I drove the damned thing, but I still love benzos.

And will own 1 again in the future

Oh sounds like your story of racing blown C5 Z06 is pure unrefined , even/especially w/your 20" wheels a blown C5 Z06 would leave you for dead.
2 lengths

Bro why are you such a tool? I've been respectful till now? I don't own a rattle box C5, it's a new C6! much, much, better than any C5 Z06.. and just as fast w/my little bolt-on mods, slight tune...

dude... I wasn't at all putting YOU down. I think C5 corvettes are junk (that's what I thought you had). The C6 on the other hand is a very nice car ... and the C6 Z06 is simply amazing... I think it's the best value out there.

Bro as I've said all along I love e55k and even think of selling my C6 for one? that's why I'm here, also I have to post your old retorts bro you started this long ago w/very conflicting info to what you're posting now..


At this time you knew I had a C6 w/light mods and this is what you said..

Then you said this..W/respect to me asking for a stock to lightly modded e55k race..
