Notice after 120mph how hard the M6 starts walking. Funny thing is, that M6 will sweat hard to break 11's at the track where as a stock Z06 with drags can go 10's.

Thats west palm beach!

Straight to jail MPH right there.

Ahmad (blackbenzz) raced a s/c M6 a couple weeks ago and it was a really close race but the M6 started pulling up top. They did a slow roll and Ahmad killed him

Are both cars stock?

RedBullJnky

that's the same place you got pulled over when we were coming back from PBIR.

BI-Performance

The M6 is modded and the vette is bone stock. I think the M6 has 3.91 gear, full exhaust, filters and tune.

Triman2008

That's a nice run right there. That M6 does have that top end.

Soo where's the E55 passing by both on the left?

That is a C5 is it not????

It's a C6, notice the Corvette emblem in the tach. The C5 ZO6 has the old emblem.

They are both very different cars.

In a straight line, the Z06 is very fast. On a circuit, the M6 would keep up with it, even without mods.

The video is as old as the Vette. My guess is the Vette driver didn't fully know how to race it yet.

GregMB

Huh?...

Mash the gas pedal to the floor for ~20 seconds. Throw in a couple of reasonably quick shifts when necessary. Pretty simple, I'm sure even I could do it.

M6 rolled out

Proving once again that stick shifts are from days gone by. Shift (M6 pull) shift (M6 pull) Great vid though

It's a shame you weren't there to teach these Z06 guys how to drive back in the day. I mean, you could have helped this stock Z06 beat an M6 stroker:

93RX7LSX

A stock LS3 vette can take a stock M6 on the highway. Either that driver in the original video didn't know how to race or the M6 is heavily modded.

pearlpower

Some people just need to get over themselves, Vette LOST! M6 IS MOD'D, read the *^%&! thread.

Zod

very very old vid

and if memory serves that m6 was sold..had issues and was heavily moded at the time
