Default 8.47 TT Z06=What my car want's to be when it grow's up.

The end of the video shows the 8.47 run. Man this car is bad azz. Owner is Paul Z, who has a site learntodragrace.com, whom can drive very well. The TT is looking better all the time? Someone is going to have to get into the 8's with thier set-up, whether nitrous or turbo?

Well that is certainly an option. However, I like the idea of using a running LS6 in some sort of a deal, to a certain NW mech, for swapping in a new Forged bottom LS7.

Those are some awesome runs. I wonder how a six speed version of that car would do? Very low 9's I would guess.

Paul Z runs a CARTEK built 346CID with TT's, Strange 12-bolt and Powerglide Trans.

I love that car to death! Most of the launch and burnout pics were taken by me. The 8.47 vid was taken with my camcorder and I was crouthing down by the tree to take pics of the launch.

It's actualy for sale, last I hear, on Corvetteforum.com

Thanks, guys. The car is still for sale and it's still kicking ***. It's a pretty wild ride Power by Cartek, suspension and drivetrain by Neverlift. Both shops did a kickass job.

Alex has been very helpful with the pics. He takes awesome shots and I appreciate them very much. One of his shots was actually used in a centerfold picture in a European tuning magazine that did a 7 page article on my car. Thanks Alex!
