Walked a Z06 at the Track!
It worked out so I was lined up with a Z06 for the last race of the night.
We staged. Launched. I already had him by one length. I couldn't believe it. I knew once he hooked I'd see him fly by. He finally hooked and grabbed second. He put two cars on me immediately. I pulled a length on him somewhere around half track and we stayed that way through the traps.
Here's the funny part:
This guy couldn't drive to save his life. And I mean that. I think someone drove it to the track for him. When we were doing our burnouts he spun 'em about 100 yards past the tree like a rail car would. Then he burned out in reverse all the way back to the waterbox. Here are the times:
ZO6 My Z28
1.005 RT: 1.058 (snoozing)
2.187 60' 2.149
5.659 330' 5.790
8.800 1/8 ET 8.742
75.28 1/8 MPH 83.96
11.596 1000' ET 11.282
13.990 1/4 ET 13.439
94.56 1/4 MPH 104.71
I talked to the guy in the staging lanes earlier in the night. I said "what are you running, mid to low 12's?" He just laughed. Now I know why.
So officially I beat a Z06. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

I would never say that I killed a Z06. This post was meant as a joke moreso than anything. I was hoping he'd run mid to low 12's since I've never lined up against anyone that fast. I'd like to see just how much faster than me that is.

Good kill! Looks like he missed 2-3 or 3-4...
I killed a bolton A4 C5 a few years ago at RT66...
I had talked to the guy earlier and he kind of gave me a little attitude... And told me it had a little done to it...
I was in my old 98SS M6... we get lined up... I run a 13.1@108mph and he runs a...... 14.2@100mph... on like a 2.3 <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> .
I also drilled him off the line so I think he freaked and spun his butt off... I only cut a 2.05 60 ft.

I almost go to stage one last friday. Guy only went 12.6@111 <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> Heck I went 12.2 banging the limiter 40 times(letting off) and cutting my worst 60 ever
its nice being faster than a 40-50k car <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />
