Damn, he must have had to go big since a certain little 346 c.i. Vortech G-trim SOM SS handed him his *** when he had the Stg II package and gas. Funny thing is the SOM SS car is on it's way back out alot bigger... Should be an interesting ride, the Z0. Just giving you guys a little crap, b/c whenever Jeff pulled up next to the Z0 they said, "next"...

I really don't think that you are talking about when I raced jeff, beacuse when we raced I was right next to him ON MOTOR then I hit the little blue button and away I went. Jeffs car definatly hauls *** but I don't think that he'll get around this unless he looses about 600 pounds out of his car. The Z06 definatly has the power to weight ratio advantage. Don't get upset about this post because if you can dish out the then I'm sure you can take some .
