Default Savior vs MNM (Corvette race... C5Z06 vs C6z51)

Well, as you all know, MNM got himself tuned and put down some very healthy numbers. So we both figured.... The time had come to give everyone what they wanted...

C5Z06 (ziptie mod, tune)(w/ one passenger)
V.S
C6Z51 (CAI, Catback and Tune)

We decided to do 1 dig race and 2 rolls to see how our cars would fair against each other. So the first race we decided to do was a dig.

So we line up, and we honk it off 3 times. I manage to take him off the line and pull about half a car in first gear. Second gear I manage to keep the 1/2 a car lead. and then 3rd gear, I start to slowly pull away, pulling about a full car by the end of third. 4th gear my car continues to slowly pull away till we shut down. (me me winning by about 1&1/2 cars.)

Then we decide to take it to the freeway. We try to pull a 40-45 roll but damn traffic was building up behind us so we had to do a 60ish roll. So we take off and MNM pulls a full car on me (I started in the wrong gear....) so I shift to 4th and slowly begin creeping it back, when he shuts down at our agreed speed of 120mph. (me losing by about 1/2 a car length)

So we decide to turn around on the freeway and give it one more go to uneven that tie and declare a winner, so we slow down to about 40 mph and take off..... And I have to say this was the best race I have ever had in life. We pull through second gear to about 75mph, neither car gaining an inch. We shift to 3rd at exactly the same time (cars have the same gearing) and then my car slowing begins inching him out. We shift into 4th gear and my slow pull continues... by the end of the race (probably going about 130-140 mph) I manage to pull about a full car on him.

So the c5z managed to pull it off. The cars are pretty even down low, but my top end seems to edge him out. But I have to say congrats to MNM because his car moves out hard as hell. I was very proud of the way it ran. Now he says he's getting a header so once thats done, I'm sure he will roll out on me. But until then, read my avatar....

BTW my GF is a noob at filming so we only got the dig race on film.... sorry about that, We might have to re run to get the others on film lol.

You telling me... **** I still need header, X pipe and a real intake before I get a cam.

But I might be falling into a full exhaust pretty soon...

I agree, I drove by you house yesterday, Turns out you live around the corner from one of my buddies. I saw your car parked in the driveway and was gonna say whats up.... But didn't wanna be this strange guy that walks up to peoples doors just because you've got the same car.

The C6 owners says hes gonna order himself some Dynatech Headers.

But another buddy of mine with a 630whp C5 is getting rid of the exhaust on his car so he's gonna hook me up with B&B bullets, Kooks headers and Xpipe.

So once we both have full exhaust, we will probably run again.

LOL yeah, Charlie is the one that told Mykel to get the dynotechs for his C6. I want to go with the QTP headers, X-pipe, and Cutout setup for my car but my buddy dan is selling me the Kooks header, X-pipe, and B&B's for 1500.... Modding is confusing....
