Bobby is invited, we will also have a bone stock Z06 at this event maybe 2, I can assure you that you DO NOT want to race either of them.

Excellent dude! Well, I better mark it down on the calendar and buy a drag wheel/tire setup.


Jrcart: in that video that was all I had. You have to remember with those little boltons I should be trapping mid to high 120's. I was going against a car that maybe traps 121 so it makes sense.

If I don't have a drag setup then you may take me as I can't launch this thing to save my life. With the proper rear wheels it'll be an easy kill haha, just messin' man but seriously, you'll lose

Fact is, the quickest stock Z-06 time I've seen is 10.85 at 129 with the guy having done over 500 runs. I guess we'll let November do the talking!!!

Yes, let's wait until November because I am sick of the Z06 vs 55 or 63 arguements on here as of late.

John "Rangers" time has been eclipsed by Jamie Furmans 10.83 @ 130.05 bonestock on drag radials, I know Jamie personally and have run with John back in the days and I will try and have both in attendance for this meet.

Jamie has the quickest and fastest times for a stock C6 Z06. Actually he broke the record at one of our rentals at MIR! He also has a badass modded GT2 as well as a modded Ford GT among other cars.

How can we show up stock? We have to do something. Only way I'll stay stock is if there is another completely stock 55. You know, to settle any family quarrels. Unless you want to represent the 63. Then I'll go for the VRP filters, x-pipe, secondary cat delete and sport mufflers.
Oh and the hard part..drop another 10-15lbs. so what do you think?
im stayin stock,so mod away if u like

Hmmm. Ahmad, you may be jinxing me with statements such as this one! J/K. So far the car loves the giggle gas. The rear and axles on the other hand would rather leave it at my office...

With all this talk of NOS,

Is there a way to allow the tank to mix withthe AC? Can you breathe in small amounts and feel better about your driving?

Seems like that bottled juice could actually have more benefits than you guys realize

10.80's out of a bone stock Z06 is very impressive. I hope he can reproduce similar times in November, I would like to see a couple of those passes.

NOS You'll learn.

We know Will did.

And to top it off turbo's with no airfilters
(Pantyhose)That's how they do it in Boca Chica on Sundays!


P.S. I would try to get a SL65 diff since it's the only 65 that comes stock with LSD.

CL65 For Rent

2005 Black Opal CL65 is available for rent on 11/15/08 @ MIR. This vehicle has a proven track pedigree with an 11.751 @ 118.55mph 1/4 run (compliments of JayCL600). The single day rental is $1K....however why take a stock CL65 down the track? You can customize this vehicle for all out war!!! You have your choice of ECU/TCU modifications that can be done in advance of the event!!! We can send out the ECU to Kleemann...RennTech or Powerchips...you pay the cost of the mods...and the rental is FREE!!!!! Don't bring a girlie V8 when you can command a manly V12TT Panzer!!! Only one in stock so act now!!!




This is a limited time offer and can not be used with any other discounts or pathetic attempts to reduce stated prices above. This is just a joke and in no way violates the mbworld Terms of Use or any other thing that can get me banned
