I honestly believe your 63 would get pulled v my C6, not being a jerk here but the 55k owns you and me in torque, also the power off 2k rpms is insane, love to see you race against a 55k the way Vadim and I did

Yeah, I could see that, the C6 seems much longer than E55k, my perspective looked like half a length but video tells all! kool! thank you once again for showing up! did you race anyone on canyon run?

DUDE you got pulled by a 211? Isnt your vette 800 lbs lighter? the 55 is just SIK you needed it to get heat soak. I think the 63 will suprise you. Torque is still serious and hp is increased. I was seriously thinking you would take the 55, nice race, glad you finally did it. Awesome man just awesome

The very 1st race we did from 60-115 or so b4 we saw the cop was near dead even
Sorry I think an E55k will own the 63 from a low roll-onAlso when we went from -minus- 30mph I lost traction very badly and still hung w/him all the way to 140ish before letting off. Yes hatz off to E55k there NO JOKE! I didn't think I'd beat him, from everything I've seen w/E55k against either C6 or more common C5 Z06 (same power as C6) it's about the same outcome
Over a 100+ feet lbs of torque at a roll does wonders!From all the stock E55k dynos I've seen here they net 460-490rwto 400-440rwhp, my C6 got a recent dyno 358rwhp 365rwto No excuse's the 211k has eaten or hung w/suposedly much faster cars than a C6 Vette? I see posts (From stock E55k's) ranging from Viper kills, to Gallardo, Porsche 997 TT, I have no shame joining those ranks.
Anytime you want to race bro? I'm always game?
Never hated on E55k I've always wanted one...

I hope your kidding w/heat soak comment? we both drove a decent amount of miles to meet up? then stopped & talked for a few min, then hit the freeway for the 1st race.

Never hated on E55k I've always wanted one...Had he gotten heat soak you would have walked him is my point. The 55 engine due to the sc can have real power loss due to heat is my point. I think you are wrong on the 63 especially from a roll and seriously you would get spanked from 100-150 IMHO. The 63 power comes at 120, I know where the **** can you drive that fast? Great race, thanks for your passion and yes I will try and pick a spot to meet, but no way in hell am I holding a camera and racing.

What is the wheelbase and track on that car? I've always wondered why its so long? Maybe to give it some high speed stability?
