What do you mean the guy? I thought it was your brother! You did not reply to my post, are you not willing to take the challenge? Since you leave harder than anyone else I am sure you would bet up on a slow c5 driver.

 

Pave1, is your name Lottie? Are you a 27 yr old female? That is what your myspace account tells me, based on the email you registered here with.

So, are you a young girl 22, young girl 23, or lottie the 27 yr old hottie?

 

PAVE1 is a 27 year old hottie who cuts 1.50 60fts in her c6 z06???

Can I get a phone number?

 

I think that this is an easily solved thread and the solution has already been posted. Lets take it to Atco and back the time up. I'm sure Rob will be there to verify the car and mods and the time slips will speak for themselves. It wouldn't be the first time I've seen a record backed up and it also wouldn't be the first time a timing error was found.

 

Well, I think that asking for an inspection and 1/4 mile run was the right move, and all the drama could have been skipped. That simple request will show the truth, even if he never shows we have an answer. CASE CLOSED.

 

^^^ You might find that a lot of work, $$$ and travel goes into setting up a track rental and gathering the vehicle inspectors. All that for a very likely no-show by the claimant, who's then apologizes and asks for a reschedule. An old story being replayed.

So what are we looking for?
60' 1.52 && 10.88?

 

Low 1.5X in a bone stock C6Z with any tire; completed pass under 11.00.

No laptop etc in the car.

Inspection immediately following the pass, if criteria were met.

Focus is on the clutch for stock and the tune for true to factory for the claimed 2007 Z06, air path. A modded car wouldn't run well on the stock tune.

just some thoughts. If a group of experienced Corvette racers were present, they can hear the pass and sense if it sounds stock.

It would not pass inspection if it (1) shows up and (2) were to run low 1.5 60'.

Wow...just wow....

If the OP was THAT serious about proving the "haters" wrong the opportunity to run at Atco would've and should have been jumped on. I don't care who is right and who is wrong but if you're going to start running your mouth you better back it up. Does it seem odd that a C6Z is pulling those kind of 60' times? Sure is. Maybe it's a factory freak or something. You're pretty damn defensive about the whole situation, well you've been given the PERFECT opportunity to shut everyone up and make them eat crow. Be a man and run the car at a GREAT track(Atco is one of the best tracks around IMO).

If you're going to talk to the talk then walk the walk. The truth will set you free.

 

Wait, you're not actually questioning Ranger's claim (not so much a claim as it is a fact) of 129.50mph on DRs (or even his 127+mph on OEM tires) are you?!

Dude (dudette? ), that takes some nerve...those passes have been witnessed, verified and backed up by video, time slips and track officials, don't even go there.

 

I wonder if this dude is the spawn of RIC Poweshifter sp?who has been holding grudge all these years dating back
to the old c5Z days.
Ranger I'm sure you picked this up already besides a few other underlying themes.
This is what I alluded to in my initial post Mr. 9 second Always in Boost.( nice run BTW).

The offer still stands for next week at Atco and I will pay his entry fee if he does the above in Rangers post.
Still wish Phil would show up and tweak my car!

 

Pave1 if you meet up with those guys, I'll Paypal over a hundo for your troubles.

Again while I see potential shenanigans here, I will shoot over some bux to help make the race happen, why not.

As time goes on the potential of the records dropping goes up because there are more cars and drivers on the road.

I saw a lot of longtime guys in that CF thread maybe get carried away, came across as highly argumentative and not very open. That is what would bother me the most. It's like the early LS1 records, you just never know.

 

Not to take sides but this would make sense to me. If the stock LS7 clutch can barely handle 505bhp then it would stand to reason that adding another 100-150rwhp would only exacerbate the condition.

 

pass the popcorn...

 

And just to be clear. The OP claims the car is stock, no mods except tires, and has stock clutch. And he claims to have beaten the 60' and 330' times of cars with after-market clutches and 100-150 more rwhp. That is a central, stubborn issue in the matter.

Everyone just needs to chill out. People on the corvette forums are ******. People love acting like they are 13 year olds on the internet. Chill.

 

Hey guys I didn't read through all the posts..

I know of this guy, I was there the day he ran the 10.76 pass. He was there with some of his family from New Jersey and PA (which I am friends with and race with often).

I didn't talk to the guy personally, but I know he drove the track, switched wheels and raced.

From what I understand from talking with his family/friends he had a filter mod (removed air filter?), drag radials, and a "chip" as it was put...probably meaning a tune.

Not trying to take anything away, just want to see if Im correct or not. The timeslip is for real, but I don't think he was stock. His trap speed may not be high, but hooking a car hard sometimes brings the trap speed down, sometimes it will bring it up though.

Not trying to start a war, but the guy does exist I've seen him race.

 

03MG,
do you remember Pave1 running the time stated or was he the other side of the time slip as someone said ? Just curious ? Pit

 

The only way a C6Z would produce a 1.505 60' is with a serious after-market clutch and nitrous sprayed off the line. That would be a long way from "stock" and also a long way from a filter and tune reported in post #97. Plenty of C6Zs running DR/filter/tune. Best 60' reported by any of them across the country is 1.65. That's a pesky 10% improvement claimed.

 

As I put in Ranger's email today what did he uncover? My husband has said many times that I register him under MY E-MAIL ACCOUNT because he does not know how!I sent Ranger pics of my husband me and all the kids {like the real man he is, he never e-mailed me back to respond just put up comments on here} Yes we got married young but we have one of the best relationship anyone could ask for! I sent Ranger a pic of Richard and my two girls at NED this past fall post that maybe someone seen me and our four kids at the drags with DADDY cheering him on!!!! By the way pretty sad when my husband gets kicked off a forum for defending what he did, and really sad Ranger can talk about MY body parts and still be a GREAT GUY! So Ranger like I said in my E-mail today GROW UP MY TWO YEAR OLD ACTS OLDER!!!!!!
