OT - Anyone know of a C6 Z06 vs E55 on 5N?

you want the gears to keep the revs in the power band... you know how when you are running at high RPM and shift into 6th, and even 5th, the RPMs fall and the car bogs down? that doesnt have to happen. if you change 5th and 6th to shorter gears, you will hit top speed in 6th.. and get there even faster... thus making the car 'faster' with out adding hp or dropping weight.
you guys need to play more Forza.

Well, it certainly seemed like you were confused when you said that any gearset you wanted could be added to the car like it was nothing.
Any gearset I want? Really? Can I put in 6.50:1 gears? After all, you said any gearset I wanted, and, without a doubt, you know everything.
I called myself in for backup because you seem to be spouting off incorrect information, and I wanted to make sure everyone about it.
Look at you telling me how this thread doesn't need me when you yourself have been told to GTFO by several people in this thread because nobody cares what you think.![slap](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/slap.gif)

just because i was told by 'street racers' to 'GTFO' doesnt mean the info is incorrect.
and you randomly 'called yourself in' from CF cause you sense some of your Z06 buddies having trouble? like spidey sense? cool.
everyone wants to compare apples to oranges.. to prove which car is better. it ridiculous.. there are way to many variables that most people don't understand..
they are two different cars. throw enough money at either and it will be faster. doesnt make it a 'better' car.

As far as 4.10 gears go - There are very few shops that will install these. They do make a very nice difference, but it isn't a common mod and if Zlicious doesn't have them, I wouldn't make a big deal out of it...most guys don't.
You have any more points to prove?

I want a piece of this kid! I'll even race Big Wheels with him. Ryan0 you are a smart mouthed little punk. This conversation does not concern you anymore unless you want to make it a 3-way race...better bring your wallet though, it's gonna cost you! Real men race for $, so are you gonna put your money where your mouth is? I will even let you name the race, 1/4 mile, roll-on, road course, oval, drifting you name it and name your wager as well, I will be there. So unless you are going to step up to my offer, you have no other eeason to be posting in here. PUT-UP OR SHUT-UP!

Poor baby, I feel kind of sad that you would need to rely on mommy to get you a 'Vette....you should go out, forge a strategic business plan and work hard for your goal so you can afford one like I did. Parents didn't pay for .02 cents of this car....but like I said before, this is very off topic and a complete waste of a conversation.

I thought you 'real men' were racing 'for fun'?
You said you want to race me in your BMW? For how much? $20?

He and are are racing as friends..for fun, you are not a freind! You better be able to come up with more than $20.00, add a couple zeros to the end of that and we can talk. I will run you with my 03 M3 if that is what you want to do. Your profile says you own an E55, you should be able to cough up more than $20.00...or does your mom own the E55 and you just say it's yours?

I thought we were becoming buddies?.. no?
How many zeros? I will ask my mom for a forward on my allowance. And you won't let me drive her car? That's not very sporting.

You can use your moms car, your dads car, hell you can use any car you can get your hands on, I just want to see how great of a driver you are. You speak as if you are the master, so I want to see first hand your awesome driving skills.

Now I'm all nervous. What if I lost? $20k is like a years pay for me.

I do not know that much about Vettes, I knew there were several rear gears available for the C6, so I just assumed they were options on the Z06 as well. Either way this should be a good race, both cars will have near equall HP and be within 300 pounds of one another. Whatever the outcome there's one thing for sure, both cars are going to be rockets!
Ryan is just wasting everyone's time. Please don't pay attention to him.

We own fast cars, you clearly do not. Keep wishing for that E55- if you spend less time trolling the internet maybe you'll be able to get yourself one.

Here's what I hate about internet car guys.
I didn't do anything in this forum. Two guys were bench racing, then were lining up a street race to 'settle' things. I said 'hey, that's stupid' #1 cause modded cars are no judge of which car is better. #2 cause street racing is for idiots. #3 cause theyre two different cars made for 2 different purposes.
All valid points.
Since I had no posts under my name and no "MB Cred", I was immediately jumped by the followers with very little knowledge of cars. Which is a shame, and which is why most internet forum dudes know very little. Even corvette forum guys were called in by the Z06 half of the 'street race'.
Now all of a sudden I get called out by some guy with a big mouth.. told to "put up or shut up"... told to "bring money". Thats a fine hello btw.. So, OK. Fine. I tell him I'll put up.
But he's no where to be found. So, now the rest of the the peanut gallery starts in with the "give it up, kid", "we need a mod to dislodge you".. "we have fast cars, you do not"..
What is that?
It's all very amusing to me, and this entire thread just perpetuates the image of 'net benz guy' being no better than 'net honda guy'.
Doesn't anyone else get it?
PS. Why are there so many p-car, bmw, z06, and 'waiting list' owners in a bens forum?
