h/c only ls2 c6 vs bike then turbo civic
I came up to a light with my friend in the car with me, out of no where a bike pulls up revving his engine and looks at me and nods his head.. I nod back. Light turned green and I launched at 2k rpms instalny a car ahead of him and We ran to 110 but he couldn't inclose on me from that car length.. The bike looked like a 04+r6. after the short sprint he drove by with a thumbs up and pulled off the highway. I stayed on the highway cruizing with the top off and far up ahead I see a white civic with cf trunk appeared to have dang near stop.. He was waiting for me. He pulls up next to me brake boosting... sounded great and took off... I destroyed him...he catchs up again so I figured... eh mybe he miss shifted or because his window is down. He brake boosts again but this time I let him get about 2-3 lengths infront of me and then hit it... from a 65mph roll I passed him mid 3rd gear... about 100ish mph and after I shifted to forth there was no need to go any faster... after that he just kept going.. I useally don't make that rookie mistake about civics.. but he had his stuff looking a lot faster then what it was. I'm guessing it was a stock motor with a decent turbo pushing only about 8-10psi with a big intercooler to act like that.... Or it could of been he had so much power he just spun the entire time? Keep in mind my car still needs to be dyno tuned. I'm not saying it's the fastest car ever and could beat any bike.. truth is it's the rider not the bike that makes them fast

I beat a stock 06 c6z tonight....Only thing he has done was a short shifter. Both rolls was in his favor... a 45mph and then the second one he left at 38.. I was in 2nd and he was in 1st.... Got about 2 half on him by about 130+ish on both runs... Keep in mind my car is untuned,winter tires, and has a fualty cam sensor.. The guy driving the z06 can bang gears. The z06 did have a passanger and mine didn't but z06's a heck lot lighter then the c6 z51 Any guess's what kind of power I might be putting down? O and tommorow I will be racing a supercharged goat.. Has a maggie but only has 500rwhp and he will be having m/t on it.. I will be having the shitto's on for this race. His car has went 11.5's

I stand corrected... The c6z was apperently a half car- my rear bumper. Behind me but I don't understand if he was that close then why did he let off before mid forth...Limiter the c6z weigh in at 3130.. 05 z51 weigh in 3245... These are both base LT weigh in. I pulled from corvette museum for the z06 and wikipidea for the z51. If you can show me other wise please do so.. A bad crank position sensor can worsen the way the engine idles, the pistons fire, or the acceleration behavior. If the engine is revved up with a bad or faulty sensor, it may cause misfiring, motor vibration or backfires. Accelerating might be hesitant, and abnormal shaking during engine idle might occur. In the worst case the car may not start..

You said faulty cam sensor not crank pos sensor.. pick one.. I know the owner and driver of the Z06 and I would go by his word that you were 1/2 car ahead. I have raced him many many times and he never tried to bullshit any of the results. No point in racing to 180. You want to race to 180 go find the viper douche that hangs out at BP.

The fact that I had to register just to respond to this kind of sucks.
I was driving the Z06, just so the record is clear. It is my brother's stock Z06 (he was in the passenger seat). And yes, I can bang gears...in an Evo. I like that people have confidence in me, but guess what, this is the 2nd time I've raced this car. It's technically the 1st time, as my original 1st time I let out at the beginning of 2nd because the guy was racing into a turn.
I've been driving Evos for years, so I know that car well. This is both mine and my brother's first times racing in a RWD, V8 car. It's a learning experience for us both. The car literally got usable tires about 3-4 weeks ago as the factory runflats were pretty much effed when he bought the car. You could not go WOT in 1st or 2nd gear without the car spinning and shifting around in the lanes. The car spends 95% of it's life in my garage and usually only gets driven on nice days.
So lets add up a tale of the tape because apparently the entire planet needs to hear about this very small victory you had:
1. I'm no pro driver. I don't claim to be and will absolutely admit that it's entirely possible my brother can drive this car better than me. It's his car and he has more seat time. Get me into an Evo, and yeah, I know exactly what I'm doing. How often do you drive your car??
2. This car is stock. A short shifter only helps so much if the guy driving it isn't used to it. Regardless of what people like to say on the street, nothing trumps experience. Even pro drivers need a little bit of seat time behind a car they have never driven before (especially on a driveline that they are infamiliar with) before they are consistent with it.
3. Does your car trap over 130mph? Good, neither does mine. I see no need to take any race into crazy high speeds. I can't help that you stayed in the race when I clearly let off at the end of 3rd gear. We didn't discuss what speed we were ending at, but I ended it when there should be an ending. We can max our cars out if you would like, and in the long run, the Z has a higher top speed. Who would win then?
4. You did give us the speed we wanted. We wanted that speed because racing from a 55mph roll is for SRT4's and people making well over 600whp. Me starting in 1st is only a benefit IF I can change gears fast enough. With my lack of experience in the car, 2nd actually may have made more sense. If someone power shifts, or has a very quick throw, then yes, me starting in 1st is a great advantage. In the case of this race I think it hurt more than it helped.
5. I said you won. In that little group, on that side road. We met up, I said you won, gave my tale of how it went...BAM, that's it. Posting up your story for all of those who will hear you not only makes you look sort of needy for attention, but it's exactly why **** gets started. I've not bragged once ever about any street race I've had. I ran DJFury a while back and they were good runs. I won a couple and he won a couple. And that was it. I never told a single person about the race unless they asked. Everyone talking crap about the races weren't even involved in the races themselves. You're adding to that kind of BS man, and you gotta relax about it. If you lost a race, do you want the winner blowing up the planet with his victory over you?
In the end, we are driving mildly quick cars that are nothing in comparison to some of the horsepower roaming the streets here. Take this race with a grain of salt, earn some respect from your fellow cars guys and just race for fun and not to brag.

If he is somewhat of a good driver it's hard to beat a srt10 viper from a roll. Idk I might run him... But I really don't want to keep pushing the car having only a start up tune.. If you ever meet me you know I never talk **** about anyones build.. there will always be a faster car ; ).. I just like to hold my own
