Talking Couple of new pics of C5 ZO6 and friend's C6 ZO6

Hey guys,

Not the best pics but I did my best still learning how to use the Canon
Both cars were very dirty

ENJOY











After that my freind brought his Cammed C6 ZO6 for some dyno runs








The car made 539rwhp with Maxed out Injectors I'm finishing the tune with my car with 9-10psi and will try to race him and get it on video

Let me know what you guys think???

both are really nice cars! Can hardly tell they were dirty.
On your Z I see it is lowered. Is it lowered on stock bolts or did you buy the longer ones?
Should be some good races, post them up for sure!

if you have to have plates in Saudi Arabia you should get a MY front plate filler they really help with the stupid license plate Also your friend with the C6 Z, does he want to get an aftermarket shifter and sell me his?

They both look good but the C6 ZO6 is my fav. I like the c6 zo6 looks better than the ZR1 too thought.

They're strict but nothing more than $40 Ticket and sometimes they let you go without it.

So how is the wheather in Kuwait????

I'm running Michilen Tires for street use but I have Hoosier for the bad stuff
The engine bay is freakin dirty but I'll post some pics very soon the goos stuff is in the butt

LOL I think if you buy a new shifter it will be cheaper than to pay for shipping from overseas LOL
Thanks man.

Nice pics. I think they would clean up great if you messed around with a photoshop type application. I would suggest gimp

Not trying to be a d_ck but I'm with you...does that brand hood just suck fitment-wise or did you have a front-end collision in the past and the panels aren't all exactly where they were from the showroom? Specifically the passenger side headlight. That was one thing I hated about the aftermarket fiberglass ram-air hood I had on my T/A - it didn't fit perfectly and really bugged the sh_t out of me since I'm a perfectionist about that sort of thing. Other than that I bet your car hauls ***!

On a side note does driving a yellow corvette scream "hey I'm American" or are there natives that drive these too? My only experience is in Bahrain and Dubai but I don't remember seeing many American cars there.

The headdlights does need some adjusting but no collision thank god.

The car screams I'm American for sure.


Thanks guys.
