I don't get how a story about beating a ZO6 on motor turned into no 55k or Merc can beat a ZO6.

What was said was that a MBZ will not beat a Z06.
This is getting off thread, so my last comment is this. The CLK63 BS in that thread is faster then this SL55 on NOS. So if this car beats a Z06, then use the transitive property and you easily see that the CLK63 BS would also beat the Z06.
Agian, lets get back on topic.
thanks

The Sprayed 55 was trapping similarly to a heavily modded Z. I saw that Black Z06 in the Video trap 128 mph , thats a hell of a fast Z considering 90 degrees. I was very impressed with the 127 based on never seeing a 125 mph trap not even from Ben in Sacramento on his SL 65.
Seeing 127 was weird from a benz at Fontana, I was suprised . I have seen better ET's.11.20-11.40's. Looks like the Evosport car should ship out to MIR NOV 15th.
118.75 was the top Stage 5 trap of the day from Ed's Stage 5 E 55,
I dont see how Jangy could of hit 116 ??? Jangy you sure your car that was hitting 110-112 suddenly trapped 116?
Where is the proof of you beatinmg the Z06? LOL.. Victory Yellow HA!!!!!BIGGEST ACHIEVEMENT was GREG COTTON attaining his Super Gas competition License.
9.90 @ 143 MPH , LOL guy said his 63 was never gonna be fast enough.

HAHA!! Ok, I'll pick up where Brad left off. Let me clear up a few things. Not all of the info has been posted. It turns out that the Corvette that I smoked was indeed a Z06. To be sure that our sceptics would stay out of the excuses arena, we have slips, pictures of the car, etc. Now, for the modded one. Even it couldn't break a 2.0 second 60' (why would leaf spring be able to?) and the 55K cars with DRs were all in the 1.8s. I have no clue what nitrous does, but I'd think that the EVO SL would do better with a proper launch.
Whoever loves the Z06 forum, please go listen for the excuses because they all got spanked. The tricked out one got two runs against Ed's E55K and won one and lost one, so I'm not really sure where all this worship comes from.

I keep telling you guys, you can try for whichever number you want. Here is the run I had against Ed (so, he should have the same slip). My car was number 54 and Ed's was 50 by the way. RT:.636, 60': 2.210, 1/8th: 8.441, MPH: 89.38, 1/4: 12.713, MPH: 116.40, time: 4:50 pm.
You wanna know how I got that? I spun my *** off the start (that is why bad 60'), but when the car caught I still had lots of room to build up speed. So, my trap times went up significantly and my time to distances went up. I only did that run to make sure that my car beat yours on the trap, since you kept talking trap speeds. You tell me what matters and I'll make sure my car takes yours everytime
Where is the proof of you beatinmg the Z06? LOL.. Victory Yellow HA!!!!!
Calling car #54. Car #54 to the lobby, please!! You were onbe of the moles, so please do speak up. The evidence is only to be used when the talk gets interesting....

If i worshiped this car i would be here making excuses for its paltry 2.0 60ft, sh*t even i ran a 1.89 myself last night on street tires with ESP on. I can assure that if you knew me there isnt a more hard core Benz HP guy, im nuts, ask your buddy Josh. To say the Z06's got spanked that day and how you "smoked" a Z06 is a joke my friend and shear arrogance. If I EVER ran a 112mph in an E55 modded such as yours id find the first tree and slam my car into and claim insurance, you should be down right embarrassed in my opinion. Sorry for the rant, its by no means personal, but you need a wake up call.

there is quite a difference between worship and respect. I can speak for myself and i think i can speak for Albert/Rflow that we respect the performance the ZO6 delivers in stock form and thats what seems to be missing here. I can also speak for myself in that if i worshiped one I would acquire it if that was indeed the case, but its not. I am a 1/4 mile and HP nut, and when it comes to that arena I tip my hat to such an amazing vehicle relative the number I have seen it achieve with my own eyes. Now you can run around with your AMG rose colored glasses on all you want, but the bottom line is that the modded Z06 at the same track and same day out trapped you by over 10 mph. Do you understand what that means If i worshiped this car i would be here making excuses for its paltry 2.0 60ft, sh*t even i ran a 1.89 myself last night on street tires with ESP on. I can assure that if you knew me there isnt a more hard core Benz HP guy, im nuts, ask your buddy Josh.

I would set mine on fire.
All joking aside
A ZO6 or any corvette has never appealed to me so purchasing one is out of the question for me. With that aside the car is currently one of the fastest cars right from the get go and they respond very well to mods. My point is you can dislike something and still admit it's strengths.

Are you serious? Let's just be clear. So, you are saying that a highly modded C6 Z06 should be happy with a 2.0 60 and especially an 11.80 et? On the same day and track and everything that a stage 4 E55 (Ed's) ran an 11.99?
You can twist it all you want. there were witnesses and there is footage of a nearly stock Z06 getting SPANKED by my car. When he finally did cross the line, he was going 10mph faster than I was, but I thought the object was to be fastest in the 1/4 mile?

I don't need a wake up call. i was there and I know. I didn't take it personal, but you did. We are on an MB forum and there's been lots of talk about these amazing vettes and how they are untouchable, especially if modded. The idea that ANY E55 (including stage 5s) could touch a Z06 was questioned. So, the fact that I beat one in the 1/4 mile does mean "smoked", wooped, whatever you want to call it. It was consistent with all of the Z06s and AMGs all day.
You say you know Josh. Then, instead of having him verify that you are nuts, hows about you ask him to post what really happened here?

Again, a highly modded Z06 ran all of 2/10ths faster than a stage 4 E55. So, assuming that they mod well (which i agree with) what does that say for the stock car?

?= I think I have a tb, ecu and pulley, headers were off.
You are the one that claimed they are slow from a role.
BTW you are correct the car that crosses first wins the race which is why if you look at the evosl55 slip it says right first by .1789 and it got whooped by the ZO6.
By all means please show us the time slip of your heads up ZO6 race.

I thought I was being clear stage 4 e55 118 trap speed, modded ZO6 125+, Jangy Stage ? 112 mph trap speed.
tb, ecu, pulley is correct. I always knew they would trap higher, but again isn't the goal time to distance?
?= I think I have a tb, ecu and pulley, headers were off.

Nah, actually I just posted that the one that I played with was slower than I thought it would be BASED on the feedback I had read here. I actually respect the comments of some, yourself included. I literally expected to have my rear handed to me and that didn't happen. Again, yesterday at the track the Z06s and the AMGs were somewhat comparable. That really is the entire point.

Now, lets be clear. Are you saying that you are willing to factor in R/T and call the winner the one that "crosses first"? If so, I have some about 10 slips to post, cause I play the tree EVERYTIME (learned it from Rick). he and I are the only ones at Fontucky that draw red-lights.

you need to reread what you just wrote, and if you dont get it well you just dont get it. Josh this guy needs some remedial work in understanding the data.

Why don't you teach me instead of just trying to belittle?
Lastly, what part of "name the metric that determines a win?" do you not get? Just answer the question.
